NPSL: Nonprofits in Second Life

Make A Wish Donation Box in Second Life

On the Web, you can become a messenger for your cause by adding a charity badge or fundraising widget to your blog or web site.  With one click, visitors can contribute dollars to your cause!  In Second Life, you can build a 3-D display and donation box where avatars can contribute Linden dollars.     That's my avatar sitting on top of the donation box (it spins!) after making a contribution to Make A Wish.  

On Friday May 25, from 11AM-12:30PM "Ferrari for Kids" will be throwing a fundraiser party with DJ Clarisse at their new HQ. Ferraris for Kids is a non-profit organisation with a simple mission : making real disabled kids dreams. In a recent french survey, they found out that 69% of the disabled kids list in their top five dream s riding in a Ferrari.

I got the exciting news that the technology youth empowerment group Global Kids is hiring for several interesting positions.

Tressis is a Dutch company with experience in Virtual Worlds and has been an interactive exhibit of Van Gogh paintings in Second Life.  You can actually step into the painting itself.  Wow!
