Fund Allocation

100% of the proceeds from 8 Wishes will go to Dyslexia Awareness Resource Center (D.A.R.C). The funds from SoloRide the documentary will be split 50-50 between DARC and the Learning Disability Association of America (LDA).

Over a 5-year period of time, DARC will award $10,000 scholarships to 100 kids across the United States. Should less than $1Million be achieved, fewer kids will be chosen. $3000 will go towards testing or college funding, as chosen by individual winners. The remaining $7000 will go towards college funding and educational needs.

The application process will not open until the goal of $1 million dollars has been achieved or the program closes. (no later than January 1, 2008). At that time, links to the appropriate documents for application will be available at this site. Nominations for applicants will be accepted for a limited time. Applications will be reviewed. Finalists will be selected. Selections will be made based on need, interviews, and recommendations. No candidate information will be considered before the process opens or without a formal application.

    Such was the case when second life linden labs decided to pull the plug on several banks in the game. Some of these banks offered the system to buy lindens what real life banks would an interest rate. Some people get their secondlife money out of the banks says that Second Life depositors may have US$ 750,000 in real life money. The new rules state that only banks with proof of an applicable government registration statement or financial institution character will be able to operate with cheap linden in the game. Second Life has proven to be a popular place for companies to set up virtual shop where many players can exchange their favorite something with all kinds of linden dollars.
