So!
I'm going to be donation-matching for my corpies. I figure it's a good way to incentivize good behavior on their part. :D We'll see how long my spacemoney lasts. :x Priano Trans-Stellar: elegant solutions for the State's needs |

Does anyone know if these are designated donations (ie the charity must spend the money on disaster relief in the Philippines), general donations to the Philippines campaign (can be spent on adverts soliciting more donations for the Philippines, admin overheads etc) or just indiscriminate donations to the Icelandic Red Cross? This matters.
Not disagreeing with charity and PLEX for good is a fantastic concept, it's just there is a little more to charity than giving away a load of money and while I'm sure CCP have done their homework and that the money is going where they say it's going (Philippines relief) I'd like some confirmation.
It'd be great if we could get some details about the nature of the donation being made to which campaign and what kind of aid the Icelandic Red Cross is providing (some charities focus on clean water, shelter etc, others on rebuilding, others on medical supplies etc). |

This is going specifically to the Icelandic Red Cross fund for Philippines relief.
There's a lot of legality surrounding a charitable drive like this that has to be taken into account, which is why it took a little more time than usual to get the ball rolling and open up for donations (I've been buried in talks and shenanigans with the amazing CCP legal team - who deserve massive hugs from everyone at next Fanfest - since Monday morning to make sure that this is all done properly).
Part of that deal is that we (CCP hf.) are a business, and as such we have to present the charity with a legal contract that specifies the nature of our donation drive, and to what cause we're donating the funds. They have to agree with this, and when we sign it we're both then legally bound in a contract that specifies where the money goes.
The result is that we now have a very robust framework in terms of both legal documentation that we can adapt to approach any charity we would like to assist with PLEX for GOOD in future, and solid community procedures for future PLEX for GOOD initiatives that we can use to respond a lot faster to this kind of situation whenever we deem it appropriate.
Part of this procedure is that we'll give a summary of the PLEX for GOOD drive once it's been completed that outlines how much we raised and where it was donated.
You can see an outline the work being performed by the Icelandic Red Cross in the Philippines at their website http://raudikrossinn.is
Hope this answers your question!

Saw this post too late to act on it before work. Will liquidate some items when I get home and should be able to manage five or six PLEXes. Will also spread this appeal to the rest of the miner ganking and AWOXing community.
Also, this will definitely get CCP some great PR. I heard about the first PLEX for Good drive before I played the game and if my computer at the time had been capable of running the EVE client, it would have started me playing. https://forums.eveonline.com/default.aspx?g=posts&t=238931 - an idea for a new form of hybrid PVE/PVP content.

Excellent work CCP! You have all my hugs!
I've been donating to VV's charity for nearly two years in the hope that another one of these would come along and had just about given up hope. You guys have made my day!

Regarding the fact that a Plex usual costs more then 15$ (depending on the country you buy it can be up to twice that price) and a Plex is only generated by buying it directly from CCP the whole action sounds rather fishy.
How about adding 5$ on top ov every Plex ccp?

Actually that's not true. You can buy GTC directly from various vendor (1 GTC=60day play time ~35$) and convert that GTC to 2x PLEX. |

The insignia could be placed in the top right of the corp or alliance tag.
The only prerequisite for the insignia, donations be equal to, corp 1 plex for every 10 members - alliance1 plex for every 20 members. This would allow even the smaller not so wealthy corps and alliances can contribute something extra, while the richer members can still make their individual donations for the Tshirt. |

Excellent idea. PLEX has been donated.
Now this is my thinking... but maybe in situations where someone say.... oh i dunno loses a crap ton of PLEX while moving it to a trade hub in say a hauler/rookie ship, perhaps a portion of the real world equivalent went out as an involuntary "Player Donation" from said player/group of players who killed the unfortunate vessel to the relief fund rather than just being blown up and going out of the game. I'm only suggesting this for the PLEX that doesn't drop mind you but I'm sure the ratio of dropped to blown up PLEX is more heavily weighted to the PLEX being blown up.
I realize not all of the PLEX has actually been brought in to the game as a real world contribution through sales but still I think even some of that lost potential value could be put to better use.
Just my two cents.

As a Filipino-American that has family affected by this, I want to give my warmest thanks to CCP and the Icelandic Red Cross for their support. It may be two weeks after the storm, yet everything helps. Trying to stabilize that much devastation and hunger will take a very long time.
My great aunt passed away during the storm (heart attack of all things); however, the family members in Leyte and Cebu are safe and accounted for. Unfortunately, they cannot say the same for their close friend's families.

Ok, guys. That's an awesome stuff. But it would be awesome to see an online progress of donations. Maybe on news page. Maybe updated once a day or so. Usually it gets people's attention and more donations :)
