128,000 Lindens Raised for Alzheimers/Dementia Research

Yesterday at the "Sweethearts Jazz Original" club, a number of musicians performed to raise money for Alzheimers and Dementia research. Among the singers was Mandkind Tracer (Seth Reagan), and Debi Latte, whom closed the event from 5 to 6PM, "looks like they had a great day. I think they had hit the 100,000 mark right before I started, so that feels good!" When Debi finally got off stage, the amount had gone up to 128,000. There were over three dozen avatars at the club while she was singing.

Debi Latte sings live at a number of clubs in Second Life.
