RFL Specials Update
Published September 25, 2007 by admin
With June and July still ahead of us, this year’s Relay for Life campaign is breaking record after record. Never have this many people been involved, never have there been this much events. It is May 25, 5:30 am SLT and the campaign’s total right now is an overwhelming L$ 17, 276, 970 ( USD 70,144) for research to fight cancer, to find a cure, but also to inform communities and support survivors and their loved ones in their fight against cancer. Seeing this amount of money and realizing that besides the huge donations during special events, a substantial amount of it it is raised in the numerous donation kiosk all over the grid, people being generous, whether they donate 1L$ or 1,000 L$, makes me so proud to be part of this community.

Speaking of which… Elika Tiramisu, hair creator extraordinaire, virtually challenges her customers to donate to the two kiosks she has in her shop at ETD Isle, by stating that she will match every single L$ that goes into them. Now I think that is an offer you can’t refuse if you have a beating heart in your typist’s body. Besides that, she has some really good RFL releases in her shop of which all proceeds ofcourse go to RFL and she has recently auctioned off 1 year of ETD releases which raised another L$67,439. I hope and wish that, while RFL is proceeding, other designers will have possibilities to be as involved as Elika. If not by donating directly, then by offering RFL releases in the special scripted vendors, or by offering the Relay sponsor teams their creations for auction or other fund raising events. So many of them have already, and they really do make a difference in this campaign.

One of them being Pukk Abel, designer of First Impressions. Already a couple of weeks ago she announced that she would release a series of designs for RFL, each of them only available for one week, but I only get to blog it just now. I think it is such a sweet idea. Hurry and get this week’s release because after May 30 it will be gone forever, and this week’s is truly a fashionista must have. Inspired after Edith Head, Hollywood’s greatest costume designer, ever Pukk has made these awesome shirts. Edith has clothed all major big screen stars, won more Academy Awards than any other designer, and even has her own star on the Walk of Fame. Now we are talking real fashion influence here!

Ryan Darragh from Second Man has blogged another wonderful initiative that he is fully responsible for. He contacted several designers and they have agreed to participate in a series of auctions that will run at the Shopaholics RFL team head quarters in the Motorati sim, from now till the actual Relay on July 28th. Bid box is on for the first auction of some awesome Gear Shift designs. Drop by and place your bid, dance to the music, have a cocktail or spend some L$ on one of the other RFL special products that are for sale there.
