Brique Zeiner, CEO
Brique Topaz in Second Life

The goal of the Feed a Smile benefit event is to raise funds to pay for the meals for the children on the Live and Learn in Kenya Intl. NPO program in Nakuru - Kenya. We have nearly 500 mouths to feed.

A huge array of live musicians, tribute groups (U2inSL - Michael Jackson - The Rolling Stones), artists, a modeling and fashion show agency, designers and builders have come together to turn this event into a successful one-week mega event - and to ""feed many, many smiles"".
