Default 2020 Topps Benefit for Australia 20-Card Set

Guys and Gals, just a heads up ~ Topps is putting out a 20-Card Set for $19.95 ala On-Demand and Donating the net proceeds to an Australian charity (TBD) to help the wildlife recovery efforts

Printed on %100 Percent Recycled Paper

Wonderful Photography & Design and just a very wholesome, throwback feel

I just wanted to make people aware this was on out there, was not sure where to post it at first ~ figured this was the place (diggin the teacher thread btw)

Seeing the devastation in pictures, i can hardly comprehend the scope of it all

To anyone who has donated to any Australian Wildlife related fund in some form or fashion i want to personally thank you from the bottom of my heart

I just ordered a set and we have also donated elsewhere to the recovery.
One week window to help out by purchasing this set.
Let's give it a giant print run...

Really appreciate you posting this, as I never would have seen it otherwise.
I teach on Australia in May so these will be great additions to the bulletin boards I create.
And I love that the proceeds are going to assist the Aussies.

Thank you for Donating ~ You Rock

I was thinking the same thing, lets all try to get the word out

Its a a massive Win/Win ~ Contribute to a truly noble cause and get a cool set

When i first saw this it just really struck a chord with me and i bought 1 instantly, thinking about buying more and giving them to family and friends

No game used pieces?

No rookies?

Thanks for the heads up on this, I didn't know about it. Just purchased a set, gifting it to my lady for her first card set! Looks like it will be for sale until Friday.
