A shot of the group
Yesterday's Discussion Group was a combination of two topics: our fundraising effort for WAR Child UK and Staff Appreciation Day at Dominion.

Sara, Chriis, and Fiona from WAR Child UK came out to tell us a little bit about the organization and its works. It was great to learn about their current projects and what our donations can do. If you want to find out more about WAR Child UK visit their website at www.warchild.org.uk. They also do great events inworld so make sure to join the WAR Child group in SL to stay involved. As Fiona said, the WAR Child presence in SL is not just about fundraising but about visibility. Tell your friends, put WAR Child in your picks. It's a fantastic organization.

During the discussion I let the group know that we were about 82,000 lindens short of our goal. Lady Eloise suggested I rez a tip jar right there and encourage everyone to contribute. I am pleased to announce we have surpassed our goal of 300,000 lindens. The donation boxes will be out until New Year's eve at which time I will announced our grand total. 100 percent of the money raised in SL will go directly to WAR Child UK. Thank you all so much for donating.

The second part of our discussion was devoted to our Staff Appreciation Day. I've said it before and I'll say it again, without our staff I am majorly screwed. Thank you to each and everyone of them for their hard work and dedication. You guys are fantastic.
