For those of you who might not know, I hang out a bit in a virtual community called Second Life(if you haven't heard of it before, it's great, go to www.secondlife.com for more info). In this virtual environment, I discovered last year that it is possible for me to help out one of my favorite charities while online! Relay for Life, which is a major fundraiser for the Amercian Cancer Society, has been represented in Second Life for the last 5 years now, and is GROWING!
This year I am Captaining one of the teams along with my wife. If you have a Second Life account, please consider donating either monetarily or of you time to help out this worthwhile cause. If you do not play Second Life, there is also a website where people can donate via Credit Card. www.relayforlife.org/secondlife
Also, be sure to check out the front page of that site. When you see the notice about a third of the way down the page, about a character named Rendal Constantineau....that's me! And yes, my avatar is wearing a dress as part of a challenge to help inspire our team to raise more money.
Until later,
RD Williams
