The Christmas Expo Mission: To Fight Childhood Cancer
Christmas is especially important to kids! Remember how big that tree was when you were small? Pictures with Santa? Listening for those reindeer on the roof? Christmas Morning?! For kids Christmas is a Magical Season! And so, this year the Expo has a new mission. Together with the American Cancer Society and our partners at Linden Lab®, the expo will be supporting Childhood Cancer initiatives of The Society. All proceeds of the Expo will be directed to support research and palliative efforts to help children with cancer.
What’s Planned for the 2019 Christmas Expo?
Back again are:
- more than 100 merchants,
- Breedables and One-Of-A-Kind auctions,
- nearly non-stop musical performances,
- Gotchas and Hunts.
- Christmas Trees, Ice Skating, Snowman Building Contest
- Santa and Mrs. Claus and the Elves
- The Holidays of Hope Ball.
Also back again is the popular Lights of Hope House Decorating Contest featuring homes built and decorated by some of Second Life’s best home builders! The event was introduced in 2018 and was one of the highlights of the 8th Annual Expo.
Linden Lab® Partners With The Expo to Help the American Cancer Society Fight Childhood Cancer!
But wait there is more! This year Linden Lab®, the Society’s partner in the fight against cancer, is joining the 9th Annual SL Christmas Expo.
