One thing I always admire is the way that people come together to help. And that’s one thing that I love about SL. We help our own. And others who are in need. We rallied for the Japan tsunami victims, people and pets, for the Haiti flood victims, for a resident’s surgery, for another resident’s legal battle, for another resident’s pet. We support causes, we donate to those that we believe in, the way each of us can: creators donate their items, on which they spent precious RL time, bloggers donate their time and photography/writing skills, and all of us, designers, bloggers and shoppers donate lindens.
Have there been attempts to scam? Yes, there have, and they have been uncovered. Was there drama? Yes, there was, but events went along and reached their goals. But most fundraisers were organized in good faith, and more residents supported them than those who criticized them.
Some may object that health issues are more important than a new computer. Maybe. But giving back is also important. And when it comes to giving back to one of the nicest and most generous creators in SL, I’M IN. All caps.
