Director of Philanthropy Hired!


Press Release
DFG Comics President and Co-Publisher Dan Graves announced earlier today that after an extensive search, the position of Director of Philanthropy for DFG Comics has been filled. DFG comics is pleased to announce to our readership that Sir Jephtha P. Ecclesiasticus has been appointed to fill this important position. Sir Jephtha comes to DFG with a wealth of experience as both a fund raiser and "social butterfly."
After completing several degrees in a variety of erudite subject areas, he went on to post-graduate work in philanthropy at the prestigious Institute for Advanced Wealth and Supercilliousness in the world-renowned economics department at Carnage City University. Sir Jephtha has worked for a number of well-known charities and NGO's including the National Organisation for Non-employed Organists (NONO), the International Relief Agency for Tasmanian Existentialists (IRATE), and has done freelance work for several professional cartoonist guilds including the Canadian Resource Association of Panelologists (CRAP). "We are extremely pleased that Sir Jephtha will bring this wealth of experience to DFG," said Mr. Graves. Sir Jephtha issued the following remarks to the press gallery at the news conference. "With the increased number emails from Kenya, Uganda, and other African nations arriving at the DFG offices requesting assistance, as well as the several hundred phone calls per day, such as request to sponsor kids for the police officers and firefighters circuses, Value Village and Goodwill charity clothing pick-ups, and requests for other funds, DFG felt that they needed someone to handle the quantity of requests. I am obviously the right person, given my extensive experience and expertise."
Sir Jephtha was born in England, but has travelled the world extensively. He was knighted in 1935 for his extensive charity work during the Great Depression. He is single, has no children, but keeps a pet Iguana.
