No reason not to ask... there is nothing for sale.
FPD ... well theres a lot to it, at least to type out.
Bottom line is that it's a little holiday for us and a reminder to share the hobby and enthusiasm it brings. To continue writing even though we all spend way to much time typing on the internet. To preserve the need of things hand written and the expression it shows.
There is not a "fund" or "donation" account... look around at the site and all the social networks it is connected to and you will see nothing for sale or ads or anything that is revenue generating. No one is advertising their name or face.
I have found that those involved on any level of fountain pen collecting etc to be genuine and ones who like to share as well.
For me, Fountain Pen Day is just another aspect of the hobby I love.

Thank you so much for the bookmarks and the stickers that arrived here in UK on Saturday. I have already sent a bookmark on to an FP friend in the UK and some of the stickers onwards in a letter to Australia. I will be passing on the rest to pen pals around the world.
I'd love to get some more stickers; are they available to buy from anywhere?
Thank you so much for your generosity.

I got mine last week. I intend to put your lovely letter on the outside of my cubicle at work, as people are always asking me about my fountain pens. And I will share the stickers with pen pals around the world. Thanks again, for your commitment to the hand-written life!!

all these look FREAKING AMAZING --- i sport my FPDay pin at work and people ask me about it all the time; and of course i feel obliged to give a University-worthy lesson on the subject
