Hi, ATINY! We’re glad to inform that we will be able to host the ATINY Supportive Santa Project again! Hopefully this time more of you will participate and we will be able to see all kinds of projects!
We also know how hard this year was for all of us, with covid and everything, but you still managed to survive the year and we’re so proud of you.
You can check how last year’s project went by browsing through the ATINY Secret Supportive Santa tag in our blog:D
• What’s ATINY Supportive Santa?
ATINY Supportive Santa consists on assigning one person to their (secret) Supportive Santa who, after getting to know them a little bit, will do whatever they want (be it a picture, a drawing, a video, or simply a post) to share them a motivational quote or just some supportive words to let them know they’re not alone!
The main purpose of this project is to know that we’re not alone and that we matter. Even if the one receiving the advice and the one sending them are total strangers, sometimes we just need someone to make us feel loved.
• Instructions
First of all, you have to know that no one else, besides your secret santa and us (atiny support team) will know the information you sent us!
1. Fill out this Google form.
There you’ll be asked:
Your Name (yes, it can be a nickname)
Your Tumblr URL
Your pronouns 🧡
Your bias/es.
Favorite color.
Something you’ve been struggling with and you’d like to receive some advice and/or encouraging words.
Again, none of this information will be given to anyone else other than your SSS (Secret Supportive Santa)
Deadline to send your forms: November 25
2. After everyone sends their forms, we will be assigning people to their SSS.
You’ll receive a DM from this blog with your assigned ATINY’s information. We kindly ask to not share it since this is supposed to create a safe place for everyone, not the opposite, so be careful.
After all the SSS are assigned…
3. Everyone will have 3 weeks to prepare their gifts!
It can be:
A drawing
A photo
An edit
A video
An animation
Something else, get creative!
Must have:
A motivational quote!
Their preferred pronouns (if needed)
Their name or tumblr url.
A song you’d like them to hear.
“Love from: (where you’re from)”
Your name or tumblr url. (Optional)
Avoid:
Triggering words your assigned ATINY specified.
Cursing.
NSFW stuff.
Racism, sexism, and any kind of discrimination!
Hate speech.
Not using the specified pronouns.
Example:
When you finish your gift, please post it and send us the link to this form.
Deadline to send your gifts: December 18
Please remember you are a Secret Supportive Santa, don’t let your assigned ATINY know who you are before the deadline!
4. On December 22 and 23…
We will be dming everyone the links to their gifts and reblogging those who said it was ok to do so 🧡
5. Send us an ask telling us your experience (Optional.)
As always, we’d like the tradition going so we’d be thankful if you let us know what you think about the project.
Thanks in advance! We hope a lot of ATINY will join us this year!
