“Pink for life” to fight against breast cancer

Operation « Pink for life » (Du Rose pour la Vie)
The cancer research Institute, Gustave Roussy, first European research center in cancer research is
launching in October 2007 : "Pink For Life". This operation is organized to raise awareness about
breast cancer, during Pink October, international month for the fight against breast cancer.
October 9 and 10, 2007 on the Champs Elysees (Paris), will be organized an exhibition followed by an
auction of exposed items. Items are donated by famous fashion designers and luxury brands. All Items
and artistic creations will share a common point: they have to be pink!
ConceptSL, the interactive communication agency, organizes the Second Life side of this event:
The Second Life operation will be in two phases : a Second Life exhibition of items/creations from SL
designers and an EBay auction of these items. To allow a maximum of people to see the exhibition and bid
in the auction, the exhibition will take place from October 1st to October 10 on Second Life. Auctions will
be opened on EBay in the same period. They will be closed October 10; and items will then be given to
their new owners.
Second Life Designers
We are looking for items and artistic creations to prepare the exhibition in 4 categories: Furniture, Clothes,
Accessories, Misc.
A maximum of 20 objects will be exposed and sold for each category. Only one design constraint: the items
must be pink (a pink painting, pink jewelry, pink dress, etc.).
The event will be hosted on Elyseum, in the exhibitions hall. All the sales profit will be donated to breast
cancer research.
