Three Year Celebration of CommonGround Networking Party!

Wow! Three years of amazing support, networking, and team building which has been one of my most favorite accomplishments in Second Life. Ethelred and I have been co-hosts of this community event, but there is a whole team of supporters that make it happen every month and more join us each time around. Just so grateful and thrilled to have the opportunity to create party themes that people enjoy and create connections via colors and common experiences. Thank you all so very much!

Please join us for a Nonprofit Commons Community Celebration at CommonGround at Aloft Nonprofit Commons with the Return of Ricken Flow as our amazing DJ!

Our party theme is “Summer of Love – Tie Dyes and Togetherness” and our theme colors are stunning rainbows and 60′s inspired hues! Dress up and join the party!

What is CommonGround? It is more than a party!

Enjoy networking and dancing among other nonprofits and supporters! Learn more about what nonprofits, educators, humanitarians, scientists, and artists accomplish in Second Life at the Nonprofit Commons at this fun and informative event.

Fundraiser for Project Jason and Garden for the Missing

Another successful fundraiser for Project Jason, an organization that assists the families of the missing, and The Garden for the Missing, a project to create awareness, was held at LoveLi Mall and earn over $200 to the cause. Kelly Jolkowski, Jason’s mother and founder of Project Jason, spoke about the disappearance of her son and how they support famillies with missing people. This Second Life event is a great example of how virtual worlds have real world results. Thank you to all who created and supported the event!

Grand Opening of the Treasured Isle Mall

We had the Grand Opening of the Treasured Isle Mall with live music and dj dancing produced by Merc and Jarhead! It was a happy affair with oldtime pals and new friends. My shop, “hue are you?” was blessed with visitors and sales. Thank you all for your support and kindness!
Afterwards, I rested in my new chair and chatted with my friends. So much more color to come!

Garden for the Missing

Today I visited with Ronnie Rhode at The Garden for the Missing, her personal project to create awareness. We are standing in front of the poster for Jason Jolkowski, the namesake of the Project Jason organization that assists the families of the missing. In the Garden, you will find 170 missing persons notices in a lush and peaceful setting. Take the time to visit and learn more about the 105,000 people that are currently missing in the U.S. Find out how you can help or increase awareness to support those with hope in their hearts.
