[BLOG] CCP set up PLEX for GOOD for Nepal victims

The earthquake that hit Nepal as well as its aftershocks have been devastating for the people living there, as lives and homes were destroyed. In its wake the community of EVE Online petitioned CCP to launch a PLEX for GOOD initiative to help, and CCP have delivered.



"Along with the EVE Online community, CCP have been following the devastating impact of these events, and we were extremely humbled to see support tickets start to flood in and requests begin to appear on the EVE forums and social media sites requesting that we launch a PLEX for GOOD initiative to assist those affected."

Players can donate their PLEX to CCP if they want to help, and each PLEX donated means that CCP will donate $15 to the Icelandic Red Cross to help victims of the earthquake. The PLEX need to be contracted to a special PLEX for GOOD character on a 14-day exchange contract, and the contracts will be accepted within 24 hours. To thank players who donate, CCP will gift two virtual t-shirts for every PLEX donated. The designs haven't been finalised yet but they will be given out during a future release.



The PLEX for GOOD initiative has been used before by EVE's community and CCP to raise over $340,000 to help those affected by natural disasters across the world. This particular one will run until May 15th, so get donating if you want to help those in need.
