Just get involved in whatever way you can – all help is appreciated! Funding begins on Monday, February 10th!
Check out the full “Girls of the Finest” details after the jump.
GI Joe Eternal says
The 50th anniversary of GI Joe is here, and we wanted to do something special to celebrate this milestone. We also wanted to showcase our amazing members from around the country by creating something that GI Joe and Cobra fans everywhere could enjoy. And thus the idea for the Girls of the Finest calendar was born!

And as if that weren't enough…

We will be creating EXCLUSIVE content for this campaign that will only be available to those who donate here, including Girls of the Finest trading cards, post cards, patches and t-shirts! These will only be produced in limited quantities and once they're sold out, that's it!
Everyone who donates $5 or more will receive an exclusive Girls of the Finest item. Anyone donating $25 or more will receive the calendar PLUS exclusive items! (See perks below for a complete list)
How to Get Involved
Clearly, donating funds is the #1 way to get involved but if you can’t contribute, that doesn't mean you can’t help! We also need people to get the word out and make some noise about our campaign. Share our link on your Facebook, Twitter or other social media, let other GI Joe fans know what we're doing, use the Indiegogo share tools to spread the word, harness the power of the Internet to help us achieve WORLD DOMINATION! (Oh sorry, Cobra Commander took over typing there for a minute…)

This is a cool idea, and I'll be glad to contribute and see it happen. However, I would like to make one small suggestion. I'm a Combat Vet myself (still on Active Duty) and I am involved with several different veterans' support groups and charities. Please find another charity to donate your money to besides Wounded Warrior Project. Only a small percentage of what they take in actually goes to programs that benefit wounded warriors. Much of the charitable contributions to WWP end up paying executive salaries or being spent on fundraising. Instead, please consider finding another veterans service organization where most, or al, of chairtable donations actually go to the programs that they run. The Fisher House Foundation would be a good one that is known on a national level.
GI Joe Eternal says
Thank you for the suggestion- I'll bring it up to the rest of the staff organizers. That being said, the organization has been chosen for this year, so it may not change. We will be changing which charity we will be giving to each year we do this, while trying to keep with the ethos of GI Joe. We will keep the one you suggested in mind for the future one.

Good luck with your project. I won't donate a dime to any organization that knowingly supports the Wounded Warrior Project, who continues to profit off the suffering of America's wounded vets and the well-meaning but ill-informed contributions of its citizens.
TheFinest says
Thank you. Maybe you will change your mind for next year. We plan on choosing another charity that supports vets and holds to the GI Joe ethos. This year we just happen to chose this one.
