Simming for a Cure

Hello everyone!

I am so excited about the possible Diabetic fundraiser in which all Simmers can take part!

Originally the idea was to only have Lots up for auction (by Auction I mean 100 lots available for 1$ a piece.)

Now I think that a "Yard Sale" would be a great way to raise money for our cause!

Custom Clothes, Furniture, and Items could be compiled on a website for 1$ donations.

Would still love more ideas and more help.  I talked to Tug about using TSR as a launching point for this fundraiser, and she will pass it on to the powers that be. 

Please comment with your thoughts!

100 Homes - 10,000 Dollars - No More Diabetes

Hi Everyone,

On March 1, 2009 I was diagnosed with Type 1 Diabetes.  I was twenty years old, newly wed, and in what I thought was perfect health.  Upon hearing "You have diabetes," from my doctor my life was forever changed.  Suddenly I had a new diet, new shoes, new exercise plans, and a new way to look at life.  Everything had to be controlled--nothing could be spontanious.

Since March, I have lost 55lbs.  I am a weight now that is the on the bottom end of a healthy BMI for my height.  I feel much better but I am still a diabetic and will be one until the end of my life--which-ultimately-will most likely be caused by diabetes.

I was one of millions living with Diabetes that did not know it.  I really want to change this.

I am working on some plans to launch an International fundraiser for the American Diabetes Foundation--and the Simming Community can definately help.

My goal is to either Create 100 Lots myself--or have others donate an exclusive lot to the cause.

Each Lot will be assigned a number 1 through 100.

Each lot may only be downloaded 100 times.  After it's 100th download it will be deleted from the servers forever and will never be downloaded again.

To download a lot, a minimum of a $1 dollar donation is required.

If all 100 lots sell out, a minimum of 10,000 dollars would have been raised and donated to the cause.

Is anyone interested in this fundraiser?
