In honor of Bella’s birthday coming up, it’s time for us to reveal a gift we have been working on for a few months now. It is with great pleasure and excitement that we can announce the formation of Twilighters For Forks, a non-profit organization set up to help benefit the city of Forks, specifically The Forks High School.
While visiting Forks for the first time this last summer, Pel and I both commented on how the words “small town” just didn’t do the city justice. Being from relatively big cities, we enjoyed how peaceful and quiet the area was, but we were concerned with the economy of the area. As we took pictures of the landscape and various “Twilight” locations we both thought that if there was any way to help the small town of Forks that we wanted in on it. We started brainstorming what could be done and wondered if the city had a means to take monetary donations over the internet. We thought that if we could place a link on the Lexicon, we’d be able to reach thousands of Twilight fans.
Later that day, we were talking to the amazing ladies who run Infinite Jewlery CO., which manufactures Bella’s Bracelet™ and Bella’s Engagement Ring™, who were also visiting Forks. They informed us that the Forks High School had been condemned and was in danger of being knocked down. They expressed their desire to do something to help the city, and we said that we had the same desire. We all knew that if the fans understood what was happening in Forks they would want to help out, too. Through the Affiliations that Infinite Jewlery Co. had made in the city and with the backing of the Lexicon, we went to various city officials asking them for a way for fans to donate to the city. Thus, Twilighters For Forks was formed!
Now is a chance for all of us who have escaped to Forks so many times while reading these books to give something back to show our gratitude. Just think of what a $2.00 donation from each fan could do for the city of Forks. Visit the Forks Forum website for all the details on the school and the purpose of Twilighters for Forks and the chance to help donate to this very valuable cause.

im gonna hepl too bad im broke but ill ask my parents for like $20.00,, cuz i spend all my money on twilight shirts
Man I sucl at spelling today
**SUCK! grrrr
Do the people of Forks even WANT that building still? Didn’t it say they need to expand the high school? This seems like a stupid idea to me. And a bunch of teenage girls donating $2.00 can’t completely turn around a city’s economy…
That’s mean^ You should appreciate that they are giving us a chance for this.
Mckenzie, if you look over on the Lex, they explain that Forks is the one that set up TFF.
I’m not sure how much Twilighters will be able to help, but considering how many of us there are it might make a difference to the people in Forks.
Yeah, Bella’s birthday is coming up, but did everyone forget that today is Nessie’s birthday? HAPPY BIRTHDAY NESSIE!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Sarah, yeah of course they set it up! Once they have all your money they can do whatever they want with it.
