Event - For Aeva Heartsick Fundraiser
Duration - May 1st to May 14th
Cause - To keep a fellow designer on the grid, who has no means to replace her dead computer
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
This is the official press release:
The bad news came a few weeks ago and if you have been part of the Aeva Heartsick
group, you will have heard about Amesha’s computer slowly dying.
Being unable to afford a new computer due to physical and mental challenges that prevent her from working in the Real World, many have rallied around
her to help donate time and Lindens to making sure we don’t lose one of the kindest
and most talented people in Second Life today.
“For Aeva Heartsick” has been created on the strength of an idea bought about by the people who love Amesha and adore her work.. They do not want her to have to
leave Second Life and stop creating the skins that the have come to love.
Over 40 Creators have come together for the event! There is everything from
clothing to accessories to home and garden
Amesha has been spending time going to and from her parents house to use their
computer when she could so she would be able to offer new beautiful skins especially for the event also!
Creators are also taking part on the Marketplace by offering percentages of
their sales to Amesha for the length of the event.
Also Chimera Firecaster is giving 50% off on any item in her store to any person. All they have to do is to purchase the item, drop her a notecard, and tell her that they bought the item for Amesha's benefit. She will refund 50% of the purchase price directly to them, and the other 50% she will donate directly to Amesha benefit fund!

It started as Burning Chrome, then there was Heartsick, until finally Aeva. Over the years there have been many products, such as demon hooves, needle mohawks, glowy belts, masks, shapes, skins and makeups. I have followed this store through all it's changes. I bought my first demon hooves from this store.
I decided to help my fellow designer, who has brought many creative creations to the grid over the years, and help raise enough money to help her to continue to do so. I understand not everyone agrees and believes in these events, there have been times in the past where something like this is organized, but is not legit, and people get leery of taking part. Please believe I would never put my label/store in an event without researching the charity/fundraiser. I would never be a part of something I don't have faith in myself. I myself have been a fan of Amesha Jewell since her first store, Burning Chrome, and through all her various stores up to present. I would not want to lose the chance of enjoying the unique items she creates, This is why I am supporting her cause.
