Essentially it's a calendar of female members of the Finest, a G.I. Joe costume club, that we sell to raise money for charity. This year we're supporting the USO. A lot of G.I. Joe cosplayers have a military background so we're excited to be able to help not only the general public, but also our former and currently military members. The ladies who are in the calendar are NOT compensated for their appearance. They are donating their time, and often their props, which we make available for donation, to the campaign. For those of us working behind the scenes it's been a labor of love that we would really like to see succeed. It's something that all of us believe in. They have a campaign running on Indegogo right now, and really need our support. On top of all this Sara also helps out at conventions running the ROMA Collectibles
