Couples in Love Photo Contest

Several months ago I wrote an article about a nonprofit in SL and its founder Carmen Gray. The group is launching a fundraiser, and she'd passed along the following information to me in a note.

Life Learning Center is having its first "Couples in Love" Photo Contest!

This contest works like the ever-popular photo contest. Each vote that you get brings you closer to the grand prize. The "Keeping Kids Safe" non-profit reaps the benefits, which helps its mission in RL.
