From Magi McBride's notecard:
I don't have the heart to close this group, however I am going to remove Blu Waters (the avatar that took in the lindens) as owner of this group and I will become the group owner. I have copied all closing transactions and will be deleting her so no further lindens can be donated. For now the group will merely exist in name only, we will not be doing any further fundraisers. Should that change I'll create another Blues for Autism avatar.
If you would like to support an Autism group here in SL I would suggest you contact Brett Stand with ASA or Count Artis of the Guardian Spirit group. Should the day come that we can resume our efforts you'll be the first to know. You will find below the receipt from Brett Stand of ASA for the final donation made by Blues for Autism.
I can't thank you all enough for all you've done, your support, your time, your lindens, your love. From the bottom of my heart I truly thank you. If you need/want to free up a space and leave the BFA group I totally understand.
In your ventures through Second Life should you see one of our kiosks if you'd take a moment and contact the person that placed it to let them know they should take it up, It would be appreciated. :)
Live, Love, Laugh and Learn

Blues For Autism Notice
Yesterday, Magi McBride made the following announcement:
Blues for Autism (BFA) A month long fundraiser that took place every April during Autism Awareness Month started almost 5 years ago, we've had some really amazing events, we've helped to spread awareness, and we've raised an awesome amount $$ benefitting the Autism Society of America. As we all know things change, not just in Second Life but in Real Life and in this it's with deepest regrets that I close the Blues for Autism group. There are a few of the BFA team members, myself included that have had life changes that do not afford us to put forth the effort into Blues for Autism as we have in the past.
I thank those that have given of themselves and their lindens, (all of You in the BFA group, the Blues Community and so many others) their venues, their talent, their creativity with designing or donations of merchandise to make Blues for Autism everything that it was.
Special heart felt thanks to my amazing team members through the years... Lucinda Bergbahn, Leanna Chaffe, Yordie Sands, Bluto Brando, IronGut MacAllister, Mathew Deerhunter, Breeze Windrum, Merrymay Lorgsval, Tippy Wingtips, Steal Hawker, Kitten Lytton, Dillon Janus, Thor Effingham, Takamatsu Soke.
However while deciding the best path to take in my personal efforts to support and spread Autism awareness I came across a group called Guardian Spirit - this is a nonprofit organization that will work with people on the Autism spectrum not only in Second Life but eventually in the real world. I am excited about working with this group and doing fundraising to promote their efforts. If this is something you'd like to become involved with or support, please let me know.
Thank you again from the bottom of my heart and I wish you and yours all the best this life has to offer.
Much love and hugz,
Magi
