[HMDS] Philip Linden visits Camp GK's Action Project on Sex Trafficking

Just before it was launched, the Camp GK campers were thrilled to have a visit by Mr. Second Life himself, Philip Linden. We believe it was his first visit to Global Kids and were delighted to have him get introduced to the important work being done by the residents.

After walking the maze and learning about sex trafficking of teens, he had the following to say (and gave us permission to quote him):

[13:29] Philip Linden: I hope a lot of people see it.
[13:30] Philip Linden: And it certainly is great that SL can be of some use in communicating info about this BIG problem.
[13:30] Philip Linden: As you guys know, one of the reasons i love coming to work is the hope that SL will be able to have a bigger and bigger impact as a tool for this sort of communication.
[13:31] Philip Linden: Make it harder for people to ignore bad things by making it easy to see and communicate about them.

Below is a photo of Philip while still in the maze, just about to click on an info ball to learn more about the issue and what can be done about it.
