We zombies are a fortunate lot. Food is rarely an issue for us as we can subsist entirely on the brains of any hapless soul who unwittingly crosses our path. For many less-dead humans, though, hunger is a real issue. October 9th through 13th, Hot For Zombies, in conjunction with World Zombie Day™, will present Zombiefest 2009, a charitable event to raise money in the fight against world hunger.

World Zombie Day™ will be a day when all fans of zombie culture can join together. There will be an international charity event done throughout the cities involved to help alleviate world hunger, and this will be a first.

In-world, the Hot For Zombies group is organizing Zombiefest 2009 to support this RL event. There will be a zombie ball, a kissing booth, and a zombie date auction…you don’t want to miss this one!

There will be a store and all proceeds will go to the International Red Cross. Interested in participating? Great! Please send a notecard to Gattina Dumpling, Stein Shilova or Putrid Gloom. Putrid, by the way, has generously donated a space for the event and we have some fantastic content creators preparing a wonderfully dismal display for the undead celebration.
