About the action:
Wielka Orkiestra Świątecznej Pomocy (The Great Orchestra of Christmas Charity) is the greatest extragovernment charity organization in Poland which saves lives providing public pediatric hospitals with highly specialistic, modern medical equipment. The WOŚP foundation buys the equipment for cardiosurgical, neonatology, oncological, nephrological wards and also for intensive care and of younger children departments.
A basic aim of the Foundation is saving lives, particularly of children, improvment of their health, as well as health promotion and education in the field of preventive treatment.
The Orchestra has also became a powerful medium spreading the ideology of kindness, friendship, tolerance, and openness not only in Poland, but outside the borders of our country too.
This is the 19th Grand Finale, and in Second Life we play for the 4th time. Until now, during 3 finals we have gathered 1 179 553 L$ in Second Life. This year we play for children with urological and nephorological diseases. The date of the Great Finale is 9 January 2011. Join us!
Thanks to Second Life, You can become the part of it. Remember, every linden is the small step to save the health and life of children
