Languagelab currently holds the record in Second Life for raising the most money in 24 hours for charity – over $1,000 USD and in total $2,000 USD. This was last year for the China Earthquake Fund. Some of our students and helpers wanted to help their fellow citizens and we had a great 24 party with singing, dancing and special guests. So this year we want to break our record for fund rasising and help even more people!
On Friday 13th we are having a fundraising event to raise money for the charity ‘Comic Relief‘. This is a charity whose aim is to help free the world from poverty.
This is a quote from their website:
“The money we raise is allocated to a wide range of grants and social investments aimed at delivering real and long-lasting change to the poorest, most vulnerable people at home and across the world; as well as informing the public and young people in particular about global citizenship and the underlying causes of extreme poverty”
Our theme is the circus so we will have fun, games and lots of music – dress up as the ringmaster, a lion or put on your red nose and donate for a good cause!
For more information on how you can help visit our welcome area or email info@languagelab.
We need your help – if you are a DJ in SL or have some great costumes you want to share come along everyone is welcome all day on Friday 13th at our Welcome area.
See you there,
Jessie Teacher
