Jopen gives cancer the finger!

Earlier this Month we sponsored an event with Bare Naked Bake Sale. BNakedB merges activism and the arts with the naked form to create photo galleries of men and women who bare all, or bare some, of their bodies.  The body-positive nude photos are used to raise money for charities, art projects, and causes.

BNakedB has another campaign going on. It is "Give Cancer the Finger"! All you have to do to participate is upload a picture of you (or a group of people) giving cancer the finger. 
"Nudity. Well, it is our theme! But we got some rules. Of course we prefer if you show some skin, but you can't show any more than you'd see in an issue of a magazine. You can *imply* that you're naked. So feel free to wear some textiles, go really lo-res, blur, use effects, or otherwise cover the bits and pieces."
Some of the Jopen staff joined in for this great cause! You can check out the picture of our staff along with many others in the BNakedB public gallery.

Jopen & Bare Naked Bake Sale Partner for Fundraising Events


We are partnering with Bare Naked Bake Sale (BNakedB), an organization that raises money and awareness for charitable causes. Vanity items will be awarded to attendees during the BNakedB Bake-Off and Burlesque Fundraiser tonight, at the Soho Gallery for Digital Art, in New York City.  Doors open at 6:30pm.
The event features a bakeoff, a full burlesque show, a photo opportunity with performers, and a raffle featuring a Vanity product.  All of the net proceeds will benefit Pink Jams! and The Intrepid Fallen Heroes Fund for the Give Cancer the Finger and Heroes fundraising campaigns.

In addition to providing a sponsorship donation for this, and upcoming fundraisers, we will support BNakedB’s online fundraising campaigns. We will help spread the word and promote BNakedB through various social media outlets and communities.Help us raise awareness for this amazing cause.

BNakedB merges activism and the arts with the naked form to create photo galleries of men and women who bare all, or bare some, of their bodies.  The body-positive nude photos are used to raise money for charities, art projects, and causes.  People interested in donating a photo to BNakedB’s public gallery can visit the organization’s Facebook page.
