Will Turner's Million-Dollar Dream

Will Turner, a marketing-consultant and part-time artist, has a big dream:  "I want to assemble 1,000 artists willing to donate $1,000 each," for ComfortZone children's bereavement camp.  In addition to raising a million dollars for the cause, he hopes the project will market emerging artists' work.
