The Unicef Project -- Starts NOW!!!

First off, before I forget, here's the LM to this wonderful project!  Unicef Project 
Also, I want to send out a Happy Birthday to Truth Hawks - the person behind the Unicef Project.  Thank you for having the heart to come up this event, which benefits such a worthy cause.
Ok, now the details --
When:  NOW - September 19th
Where:  the Project Donate sim
Why:  Because millions of people have been (and continue to be) affected by the horrific floods in Pakistan. 
What:  A sim loaded with donated items from so many generous and talented designers!  Some of the items are exclusive.  50-100% of the proceeds of each of the items is being donated to Unicef.  Donation jars are also scattered across the sim.

When I first heard of this project, I knew immediately that I wanted to be a part of it (in the very small way that I can be).  I live in the US, and here, it's almost as if one of the world's worst natural disasters isn't happening at all.  Because it's not occurring on our own soil, and no one from the US really vacations in Pakistan (as they do in Indonesia, for example), this crisis is getting a ridiculously small amount of coverage in the American media.  So here I am, doing what little I can to raise awareness.  Join me in spreading the word about this opportunity to help!

Now for the fun part!  Shopping!  I knew the designers would give us their tastiest morsels to sink our teeth (and our lindens) into, and they did not disappoint!
