Strawberry Singh has news of an excellent non-profit campaign in Second Life, led by Juno Mantel, a well-known SL fashion designer:
Juno Mantel of Junbug has started a campaign to help educate girls in Sierra Leone [one of the world's most impoverished countries]. She has created this adorable vintage school dress, available in 5 colors, and 100% of the sales will be donated to her Do it in a Dress campaign... The Do it in a Dress campaign is part of the One Girl Organization in Australia. People from all over the world (men, women and children) have been taking part by wearing a dress and raising funds.
So now SLers can dress up to help raise funds too. Click here to buy the dresses in SL and go here to watch the funds come in on the NGO's official website.
Also via Strawberry, here's a video from One Girl explaining the program more:
