CCP Falcon 4626	Posted - 2013.11.20 16:21:00 - [1] - Quote While the EVE Community may live and breathe carnage in New Eden, it's no secret that when it comes to supporting charity drives with CCP, our players always vastly exceed expectations and band together as an amazing force for good will. We're happy to announce that on the request of the EVE Community, PLEX for GOOD has returned to assist with relief efforts after the devastating events in the Philippines. Please see this Dev Blog for further information. For any questions regarding PLEX for GOOD, we have a FAQ on the EVElopedia too!

CCP Falcon 4644	Posted - 2013.11.20 22:09:00 - [10] - Quote X ATM092 wrote: 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!

CCP Falcon 4668	Posted - 2013.11.21 17:45:00 - [11] - Quote A little update for you guys! Wired released this article earlier today. A few hours before that, we hit a value of $10,000 in PLEX. A couple of hours ago, we passed $15,000. You guys are amazing CCP Falcon -á \|\| -á EVE Community Manager -á \|\| -á EVE Illuminati @CCP_Falcon -á \|\| -á-á@EVE_LiveEvents

CCP Falcon 4709	Posted - 2013.11.26 13:30:00 - [13] - Quote An update! We now stand at 2864 PLEX donated to PLEX for GOOD this time around, which means we've broken our record for PLEX donated in previous drives. Total value now stands at almost $43,000 US CCP Falcon -á \|\| -á EVE Community Manager -á \|\| -á EVE Illuminati @CCP_Falcon -á \|\| -á-á@EVE_LiveEvents
