Yesterday was the kick off event to our very first Teen Grid SL Relay For Life. Working with a fantastic organization called Global Kids we are empowering teens involved in SL to create their own Relay experience. I am so excited that the youth on the teen grid have the energy and the desire to put something together. When I was talking with them I head a lot of personal stories about grandparents passing away from Cancer and their desire to help others. It really made me excited to think that the teens are ready to advocate, and run awareness about cancer in their own world, in their own way. This should be very interesting!
