ACREDITAR Project in Sl for Rl Children/Families
I get invitations to go to many events in Second Life, and sometimes I might be working on something else and just skip over something, not being mean but just so into a project I just click notes and LM's away without thinking...today a good friend of mine Cesare Drucker, Imed me with a landmark about a charity, I asked him what it was about because I had never really heard the word Acreditar before. He told me it was for children with cancer and DJ's from all around SL were engaging in concert type marathon events for this charity. I am all for helping people who are ill and dying and especially children.
Cesare gave me name of a lady to contact for event schedules and such, Luna Baran who I told I was interested in doing a story on my blog for this charity. She seemed to be delighted and gave me tons of information which I will gladly pass on to you all and with great pleasure. So PLEASE read , and help if you can!
"Acreditar (Believe) is a private charitable institution RL that aims to help children and their families to better overcome the various problems that arise from the time childhood cancer is diagnosed throughout its subsequent journey and at all times helping to foster hope.
There are indeed reasons to support this hope: today, approximately 70% of childhood cancers can be cured completely and every day there is progress in the fight against disease.
The struggle is to believe that each moment has Hope!
... "It is our aim that children with cancer have the same opportunities, not only survival but also to gain the psychological health and physical growth and to lead them into adulthood."
One of the ways that the charity works is by running a number of houses around Portugal. The idea of creating houses the for these children and their families came from the need to ensure a point close to hospital for the children, accompanied by their families, during periods of outpatient treatment to stay.
In fact, many of these children do not live in urban areas. Some of them are from distant regions, not only in Portugal but also Madeira, the Azores and Portuguese-speaking African countries. The treatment often required periods of forced confinement, so the centerss are essential for families in poor areas with no facilities to adapt . The answer found was to create, from scratch, houses they could, during this time, be home to all who need them. Giving them stability together as a family and support from Acreditar.
Acreditar survives mainly by the support of its members and friends, the work of volunteers and a small body of staff which ensures its management. It is funded in the main by donations and they all help however big or small.
We the Acreditar SL team are proud to be working with this charity and hope that you will enjoy a range of events that we will be bringing to you so that you can touch the lives of those that need it RL.
