Entry #37: Signed Copy Of Matthew Good's Hospital Music

Most people in North America probably already know who Matthew Good is. Matthew is a well known writer, political blogger, human rights advocate and one of Canada’s most successful musicians. In the last ten years or so, Matthew has released seven full-length albums, all of which have gone either gold, platinum or double platinum.

Last year, the release of Matthew’s seventh album, Hospital Music, went #1 in Canada, and #7 on the US Alternative charts on iTunes, a record for an independent release in the United States.
Matthew has generously donated a signed copy of his latest album, Hospital Music, to help with the current charity event. Any person that contributes at least $10 to the Union Gospel Mission will be eligible to win the signed copy. After blogathon is over, and all people who pledged have made their donation to the charity, I’ll do a draw and pick who the winner will be.
To give a pledge, please head over to the blogathon donation page and enter your pledge amount. You don’t have to pay today — you’ll receive an email at a later date with your instructions on how to donate to the Union Gospel Mission. After you’ve done that, please leave a comment on this entry so I know which people to put in the draw. If you’ve already pledged more than $10, and wish to be considered, please leave a comment here.
Also, a big thanks to Tyson Elder and dylshi who recently pledged.
