Would you consider joining Mark Ruffalo, Eliza Dushku, Sasha Coen, Jeremy Piven, Jake Silbermann, and others in sharing your voice for 15 seconds to help Japan?
Some friends of mine were trying to think of a way to help in Japan without having that much money, and they ended up creating a new project: Japan Calls. The idea is that actors/artists/entertainers (like yourself) or other established names take a little bit of time, just 15 seconds, to leave a personal message to the highest bidder in selected auctions. Bidders would bid on receiving a 15 second voice message from you. (A very simple task with this site, http://vocaroo.com/, or via YouTube video, whatever is to your liking.) The highest bidder, after providing proof of their donation, would get that said message from you.
All donations will be going to help Japan via the several charities people decide to donate to, using the wonderful world of the internet as a way for regular everyday people to do their part. Donations will go directly to the charity, not through the community. We would provide you the donor's name and donation amount if you were not following the auction and if you would prefer.
So to reiterate, ALL we ask is that you provide 15 seconds of your voice. That’s it. Anything more is completely up to you. Just 15 seconds to both make a fan happy and help a country in need.
A list of those who've already signed on is available here, and it's growing every day! We would love to add your name to the list, so please consider helping out, and if you agree, please let your fellow entertainers know so they can provide their voices as well!
If you're interested, you can reply to my tweet, or tweet directly to @japan_calls.
Thank you for your time!
