It's mission creep. Mission creep is bad.
If you could increase your NAV by (re-)selling PLEX, you might also consider other ways of increasing the NAV, such as production or research, or trading other things.
I would tend to agree with this. PLEXs are themselves the final product of this charity and even if they lose isk value they won't lose rl value when they come to be donated.

Pro Tip: Find a sponsor to fill up the isk for the last plex. Problem solved.
I'll cover that. VV - shoot me a mail with the amount.
In general, I'm not wild about the idea of donating a lot personally on this particular plex drive (although I'm happy that the fund will be). Japan has suffered a terrible tragedy and my thoughts are with those who have suffered. However, Japan is one of the richest countries in the world, both in absolute terms and per capita, and providing financial support via a charity does not strike me as being very likely to actually alleviate any suffering. I'm pretty sure the government there will spend whatever is necessary and, as such, charitable spending will not provide services that would otherwise be unavailable but will only lead to a slight reduction in government spending, thus providing a very small reduction in the tax burden of Japaneses citizens as a whole in the near future. And if something similar happens two weeks later in, say, the Phillipines or Indonesia, countries where outside financial aid might make a very real difference, I suspect that I am not the only one who would probably not dig as deep again if they had made a large donation this time.
So, I'm happy to throw a plex at this as a token of solidarity but beyond that I'll save my resources for deployment when I think it could make a significant difference.

Nice one AC! Over a thousand dollars for the Red Cross in one donation.
VV - What's the running total so far?

Just curious, why send the Plex to VV instead of ccp? I can understand sending less than a Plex in ISK, but if you are donating a Plex, you might as well send them directly to ccp.
VV provides a nice vehicle for building up momentum and challenging the community to act.

Slight correction, this donation was made on behalf of myself, Ray, and about 1,300 caring eve players.
Please let this be a joke

@Above
I am going to log in tomorrow. I'll post the ships fittings so you can tell me what do you want of them.
I'll take the Raven however it is currently fitted. Anything I don't want I can sell off in my own time.

@RAW23 I finally managed to find a price for the CNR (rigs not considered): 1,545,542,449.82. If you are fine with a price around that, it's deal.
I'll take your word on the price :-)
Contract to Kara please and I'll accept as soon as it hits.

Hulking donation coming off Rykker Bow!
He donated basically all what he had, for a total of 40B! Fourty billions!!
I would love to find words to talk about this but... I am just left speechless.
I'll just let the hard number talk by itself.
He rigthfully takes the crown of Top Donor 2011 and right in time to help those poor Japanese guys whose pains seem to know no end.
That's a pretty incredible donation!

You should know perfectly well that screenshots do not constitute a proof of anything. We stop using screenshots as proofs a long time ago. Would you be accepting screenshots as proof of assets from now on?
This is one of those rare situations when you can check for yourself. Just put in a petition and if VV is still here a week later you have your proof.
Edit - Also what Roguehalo said.

Why is it that when I point a simple fact people turn around an attack me?
Your video claims to be the ôproofö of your donations. I am not questioning whether or not the donations took place. That is ccpÆs job, and I hope they follow thru. I am simply pointing out that screenshots and videos proof of nothing.
Given the limited options available, it is probably the closest possible approximation of 'proof'. Now I'll be the first to criticize VV whenever appropriate, but this is not a point where criticism is due, certainly not from someone who has flatly refused to give any (even flimsy) evidence of his claims.
This.
Also, given the contents of this dev blog
http://www.eveonline.com/devblog.asp?a=blog&bid=893
I imagine CCP has actually checked that the received the plexes from VV before going out of their way to thank her.
