Ellie's Attic is participating as a vendor in the charitable event "Extend a Helping Hand"! The event runs from January 11 thru February 8 HERE, at the Extend a Helping Hand Event Hall: http://slurl.com/secondlife/Adien/44/109/1026
At our booth, you will find a set of "Caged Heart" Silks on sale for the reduced price of L$400. 100% of sales for this item will be donated to the cause.
There is also a 50% vendor containing the JUST RELEASED Pregnancy Shape Series: Julia v1.0. Also selling for L$400 per set, HALF of all proceeds for this item will go to the EaHH cause!
We've also got IN OUR MAIN STORE, a donation kiosk if you would simply prefer to make a donation to the cause yourself. There is additional information available at the store, too, as well as a place to join for UPDATED information as it is received.
~~~~~~~~~~~PLEASE READ BELOW!!~~~~~~~~~~~
-= About the Cause =-
Extend a Helping Hand is an event put together by Sanura Sakai to raise funds for the Premier's Disaster Relief Appeal. The aim is to provide support and assistance to those Queenslanders affected by the recent massive flooding.
The flooding has already affected 22 towns, as of January 1st, and has forced many from their homes. It has had a devastating effect on many people's lives and livelihoods. An area larger than Germany and France combined has been affected by the flood-waters, and the impact will still be felt for some time to come.
Just to give you some idea about the effect of the floods in the town of Bundaberg, visit http://www.facebook.com/#!/pages/Bundy-Floods-2010/176597162370872?v=photos
To read more about the Premier's Disaster Relief Appeal, to which all funds raised by this event will go, please visit http://www.qld.gov.au/floods/. You can also donate directly, if you so desire, through the information provided on that site.
To provide complete transparency to this process, transaction history for all donations will be provided at the close of the event at http://katjohnston.com. Kat Johnston is the real life name of Sanura Sakai, who will be running the event.
-= The Quick Details =-
The Extend a Helping Hand Market will be held from January 11th through to January 31st, though donation vendors and donation booths may be available sooner at individual stores across the grid - the Market is a central area for the event, but we're hoping that people will participate in their own mainstores and other locations also. Money raised will be donated to the Premier's Disaster Relief Appeal to assist those affected by the Queensland floods.
You can join the Extend a Helping Hand Subscription Group to keep updated for the duration of the event, and to receive notifications when vendors release new donation items.
A regularly updated list of stores and their landmarks will be available at http://katjohnston.com once people have set up a donation item or donation booth.
-= Get Involved =-
IM or drop a notecard on Sanura Sakai to receive a full informatrion package on becoming a participant. You might want to put on an event, promote the cause, provide donation items, become a donation point or blog about the event. Can you think of another way to get involved? Let me know!
-= About the Organizer =- (In her own words!)
"We all like to know who it is that we're trusting with the funds we donate, so let me tell you a bit about myself.
"My real life name is Kat Johnston. I'm an artist based in Queensland, Australia and have established myself as a creator in Second Life since 2008 with my store, Sanu. The split scripts will allocate the amounts donated through the vendors to an alt created under my own real life name: KatJohnston Resident. As mentioned, there will be complete transparency with this process, so you may feel confident that your money will end up with the Premier's Disaster Relief Fund when this event is over.
"This particular cause is close to my heart, as all of my immediate family is located in Bundaberg. It is one of the major epicentres of the flooding. It is my sincere hope that by raising money here in Second Life towards the Premier's Disaster Relief Fund, I and the others who contribute can make a difference to the lives of those who have been changed by this flood."
