Lexi Morgan of Stellar is an incredibly giving person, that has always been my experience with her over the years, so when she lets me know she is involved with a new fundraiser, I know that she is dedicated to as much as she can do to see it a success. She has teamed up with other Designers from all over SL and they will be collaborating so to speak on this joint venture.

So make sure you keep your eyes open for Athena’s Cup in your favourite Store, and if you are a Designer yourself, and want to take part, then contact Alysha Rennahan .

Notecard Copy :

Greetings!

I hope this note finds you well and enjoying the season of fall in October.

I am writing to you to hopefully get you interested in joining me for a great cause that I am bringing over from RL.

I have recently started my own home business called Athena’s. If you have never heard of Athena’s, it is a home novelty company focusing primarily on women. If you have ever heard of fun “girly” party, it was probably an Athena’s party!

Currently, Athena’s has launched “The Athena’s Cup”. Our goal for the Athena’s Cup is to raise breast cancer awareness by raising $500,000 and break the Guiness Book of World Record for the most bras hooked together – 169,000!

In RL, we are asking for a suggested $5 donation and any amount of bras anyone is willing to donate. The event is running now through January 10, 2010, the day in which we will hook together all the bras we have received and hopefully break the record!

If you are interested in the RL site, here is the link: http://www.athenascup.org/

This is such a great cause that I wanted to bring it into SL and hopefully get everyone else excited to contribute.

“The SL Athena’s Cup” will focus on raising money through donated items in which 100% of proceeds will go to the Athena’s Cup in RL.

Here are the details of this SL event:

– Designers willing to participate will put up SL Athena’s Cup vendors containing their charity item in their respective locations.

– Items should center around a pink bra theme (pink for breast cancer awareness, bra for….well, duh!).

– Items should be limited edition to encourage the “come get it now before it’s gone” energy.

– Donation price is at the designers’ discretion. Some suggestions follow:
– Whatever donation price you deem is worthy of your offering. After all, you know your own stuff best!
– L$5 donation to mirror the suggested $5.00 donation of the RL event.
– L$ equivalent of the RL $5.00 donation (currently between L$1217 (for exactly $5) and L$1295 (for $5.30 with fee))

– Length of time item is up and available is up to each designer, but the SL event will close on 1/1/10 to give me enough time to reconcile everything in time for the 1/10/10 event.

– An alt account has been established by me for all funds from donated items to go directly to.

– Proof of final donation will be posted on my blog: http://alyshassl.wordpress.com so that you know I’m legit and not running to Vegas with the money.

– I will get pictures of the event to post when I return for even more proof (and to show you how fun it is!).

That’s about it in a nutshell! You see how easy this is and what a great cause and fun event this will be. Your creativity is endless and your generosity is admirable. I hope that you will decide to join us.

If you are interested in joining this wonderful cause, please complete this notecard, rename where appropriate, and drop it back to me (Alysha Rennahan).

Please feel free to ask me any questions you may have. Since Athena’s is my business, all information is confidential. So please feel secure in that.

Final folders for those participating will be sent out shortly and the event kickoff will be officially announced on my blog – aiming for Wednesday, October 21st the latest.

Any questions at any time, please do not hesitate to contact me.

Again, I appreciate you taking the time to consider joining me in this great event!

Sincerely,
Alysha Rennahan

It is a Hair Expo organized by a committee of designers, giving you the opportunity to view many different stores old and new all in one place. This is a great opportunity for any hair designer to show off their work to a large audience of hair fanatics.

You also get to meet and work with others who have the same passion as you do, while working for a good cause. Last year we decided to have part of our profits go to the Locks Of Love Charity. We will be doing that again this year with a few minor changes.

Not only do we showcase hair, we also have a ton of events lined up. Name the Designer & Bandana Day just to name a couple. You will also have the opportunity to get to work with other amazing hair designers on a group wig that will be auctioned off.

Cherry Tokyo is putting together a fundraiser, this is the notecard she has sent out to people and hopefully a lot more will show interest.

I am putting together a fundraiser for either Saturday or Sunday for the weekend after this (31st/1st) and I am trying to get as many people involved in this as possible. The fundraiser is for the people of Myanmar/Burma and the victims of the Chinese earthquake. We will be giving all proceeds to my local American Red Cross Chapter in Dallas, TX. If you’d like to participate in the fundraiser please let me know by Monday 5/26/8. If you want to build, or sell an item for the fund (100% of the proceeds would go to the fundraiser), or just make a pledge I am accepting any/all help to run this fundraiser.
Thanks,
Cherry Tokyo

Sidonie Larkham of L & W Furniture has created this fabulous set of Simple Cherry furniture, the reason for the furniture was to provide beautiful pieces with low prims for the people out there that rent accomodation.

There are 35 animations in the bed and to keep prim count even lower the canopy and frame are optional , which is great. There are instructions on how to adjust the poseballs for your needs and this is just a lovely set for when you do or dont need to watch your primmage .
Sidonie has set this up for display HERE and you can buy it with 50% of the money going to Wheelies YAY .

Some more fab items have been put up at Dark Eden to raise funds for Wheelies, Etain also went a step further to personalise the back of the stripped Jacket which is just lovely, thank you.

I am going to list all locations to find items so that its not confusing to try and find them all.
