PLEX for Good: EVE Online players can donate to the Nepal earthquake relief fund, too

PLEX writes checks

Doing good sometimes has a domino effect. That’s the case with contributions to the Nepal earthquake fund. First, the Far Cry devs started matching donations. Then, Bungie sold t-shirts to help the cause. Now, CCP’s hyper-warping its ships to offer some relief.

CCP just fired up another PLEX for Good drive in which players can donate EVE Online‘s in-game subscription currency. For each PLEX received, CCP will chip in $15 to the Icelandic Red Cross to fund their efforts in Nepal. Players who want to help just need to contract one or more PLEX to the on a 14-day contract.

This isn’t the first time that CCP’s given its players an outlet to help. The PLEX for Good program has raised more than $340,000 for aid related to natural disasters. The most recent drive resulted in donations of almost $200,000 for the Filipino people in the wake of Typhoon Haiyan in November 2013.
