Greetings from your fellow DeviantArtists!


Our mission is simply called "YamiAid", a collaborative account made by various deviants towards a single purpose: to raise money for a dear friend named Yami, for her surgery and subsequent doctor visits.


Who is Yami?
Yami is a pleasant girl attending a Tennesee university. She is a good friend of many in the Kirby community and is very studious.

Why does she need aid?
Yami unfortunately came across terrible news at a bad time. She needs surgery, and quite soon. Her family is very poor, getting through her college mostly on scholarships from her hard work. She can barely afford the mandatory (but quickly rising) expenses for college, and she is unable to get much in loans because of the credit crisis in America.

And this money will go to her?
The commissions range from $1 to about $10 and all proceeds go directly to Yami. The Paypal accepting the commissions and donations (yamiaid@web.de) will be entirely forwarded to her personal paypal, that way our artists can rest assured that their commissions were paid for and she may keep her paypal account private.

I want to know more!
We are trying to protect everyone's privacy in this as best as we can, so this will be all the information presented publicly. If you have more questions, feel free to note this account.
