Spoonfull of Sugar Festival to benefit Doctors Without Borders/Medicines Sans Frontieres

When this Festival was advertised I just had to be a part of it. As a nurse I have worked with a few doctors who have been a part of this organization. Without the dedication, and bravery, of these special people a lot of the world's sick and underprivileged population would die. While they cannot get everywhere, and cure everything, they make such a vast difference. 


The Festival opens Friday 9th September at 12 am SLT and closes on Sunday 25th September at midnight. Over 5 sims with 180 stores in fashion, home and garden and breedables this Event will have something for everyone. With 100% of the proceeds of at least 1 item in each store being donated, plus the generous donations from the designers themselves, your participation will certainly help. And you'll be getting some great items! Just so you know, Doctors without Borders does have a direct representative in-world collecting all monies straight to their account via the vendors.
 
For every national and international disaster Doctor's Without Borders has been there. There is no barrier, border, or line they will not cross, no length they will not go to too bring aid to those who need it most. Where there is need they are there giving generously all of their knowledge, talent, and skills. Now it is time to give back to them.



Second Life is a global community and with the help of AIM, LTD, ModeLS Magazine, The Second Life Enquirer, SL Live Radio, and Versus Magazine we will come together to celebrate the world wide movement of Médecins Sans Frontières with an entire two weeks of parties, events, and fundraising beginning Sept 9th to the 25th, 2016. Join us at The Spoonful of Sugar Festival as we jet off to old London for what this inaugural event and help MSF/DWB to make a difference in the world.
 
We have some of the most amazing, wonderful, and talented designers in fashion, home and garden, and breedables joining us to make this an event to remember. Take a moment to shop Alafolie, Ex Machina, Zuri Jewelry, Roanwood for exciting fashion and home goods. Stop by the Wonderful World of Meeroos or visit Wild Kajaera or Dragoos on the lovely breedables sim. There will be a little bit of everything from clothing, to hair, and skins. Our Home & Garden Sim will be filled with furniture, home accessories, and gorgeous houses that will make you the envy of your neighbors. Finally the breedable sim will house some of the most adorable, cute, and cuddly creatures that danced through anyones imagination. The best part; it can all be yours and it will all benefit an amazing cause.



This is just the beginning though we have some fabulous events planned for the week including an opening gala event, fabulous London Bridge themed fashion show, live entertainment, dance parties, and more. Enjoy a carriage around Piccadilly with Elite Equestrian.
