How much of each plex donated is going to the relief efforts? A plex is in the neighborhood of $15 USD. Does CCP take a cut of that prior to donation?
A little more in the way of details would be appreciated.

"100% of the proceeds" taken from the dev blog.
Reading isn't that hard to do now is it?
Proceeds? Proceeds = Money received through a sale or loan. The term sometimes refers to net proceeds (after any commissions, fees or other charges are deducted), and sometimes refers to gross proceeds (before such deductions).
Again, need more details. Net proceeds? Gross proceeds? Seriously... reading isn't that hard to now is it?

Yes. CCP will keep all that ISK for themselves and not donate the RL money to the Red Cross (you're not a shareholder, btw. Don't donate if you are that concerned of CCP scamming you).
I am not concerned about CCP scamming me. What I am concerned is what is the passthru on the donations? 100&? 99%? 50%? Unforunately in todays day and age there are people who use tragic events like these to their own devious advantages. NO, I am NOT saying CCP would do this, but clarifaction is nice.
Very few charities have 100% passthru rates for donations. Presumably CCP is going to pass 100% of the value of the plex to a charity, but confirmation and more details are always appreciated.
They are still sorting out who stole what donations made to 9/11 victims.

I find it interesting that our wealthy western governments, and us by extension could be helping these countries every single day.
Yet we slap them with embargos, bans, tariffs, sanctions etc that are directly tied to "aid".
We then wait for a tragedy to occur before we pretend to help. We send in our troops with their guns much faster than we send any actual help.
The troops with guns arrive quickly to prevent the dredges of human society from taking advantage of the lawless nature of the area. Haiti has always been a dangerous place, even more so now considering any semblence of law and order are under tons of rubble.
Yes, I can see it now. Thousands of white/blue collar people flooding to Haiti to help, only to be ****d/kidnapped/robbed/murdered before dispensing any help whatsoever.
Troops be damned.
