Last week I wrote about a virtual homeless teenager in Second Life who raising awareness of the plight of homeless teens in Spain.
Nick Booth from the UK is asking for help in promoting an internet UK-based fundraiser. Participants who enter here can win a Playstation 3 from Dixons and have their £1 text or phone entrance fee go to help The Foyer Foundation, a nonprofit that works with homeless young people.
Nick, who loves to experiment for good causes, is hoping to use some web2.0 tools to he word through the gaming community by using Digg and the ps3 tag. Since PS3s are impossible to find at this point, this may be one of the few ways left for gamers to get one. It isn't just self either, the charity will benefit and be able to help a homeless young person.
Check out Nick's post and let's send a little blog buzz his way. I'll also forward his post to some of the gamers I know by using 06-g4c tag and forwarding it to the games for change list.
