Only a week to go for two charity events highlighted by auctioning of cartoons.

Editorial and magazine cartoonists have made contributions to benefit two good causes.

First up, with an auction ending May 7, is the Reporters Committee for Freedom of the Press.

The RCFP provides pro boon legal representation, amicus curiae support, and other legal resources to protect First Amendment freedoms and the newsgathering rights of journalists.

Look at available cartoons from op-ed and magazine pages
for the Reporters Committee for Freedom of the Press.

The second event, and it is an event, is for the benefit of Press Forward.

Press Forward is an independent initiative whose mission is to create safe, civil and diverse workplaces for women and men to do their best work in journalism. We believe every voice in the newsroom matters – from the intern to the anchor – and journalists should strive for change that is reflective of not only the American population but ethical work standards.

This auction ends May 8th with a party.

Here’s is a view of some of the cartoon art available for bid.

A hat tip, and for more information go to
Michael Maslin’s Ink Spill
and to the
Association of American Editorial Cartoonists.
