Hello Just About!
I wanted to share the final total for this weekend's Extra Life charity 24h marathon that I ran over on Twitch.
We raised $11 001 USD for the Stollery Children's Hospital in 24 hours. $7000 was raised in the first 8 hours.
With the EVE community's help, we raised over 402 billion isk ($3350 USD equivalent) in skins, ships, PLEX, isk, modules and a host of other goodies all of which can be tracked on this publicly available Google Spreadsheet. I regret to inform you that we ran out of time to give ALL of this away, but my team of moderators and I will ensure that every last isk will be donated back to the community this week. We are double and triple checking to ensure that nothing is left in our hangars.
I wanted to thank a bunch of groups/people who made this weekend a huge success:
CCP for promoting the charity event in the Community Beat, Instagram and for raiding into me during the Alliance Tournament . Without their support, we would not have been able to have nearly as large of an audience as we had.
Markee Dragon for using proceeds from his store and his reach to help push us into our goal of $10000.
Erst for using his platform to push us pass our goal of $10000.
Ahbazon Prime for helping host our Rorqual Feed main event.
All of the donors, big and small, who used their in-game time and assets to make this event a roaring success.
My moderator team, Xylr, Lance and Starjammer for helping with giveaways and for keeping me going during the rough patches. These gentlemen are some of the best capsuleers this side of New Eden.
And most importantly of all, you, the donors. As Xylr eloquently said: "Thank you. Thank you for all you do. Thank you for being a caring person and donating your time, money, digital pixels to Schad's charity event. This charity event is so deeply important to him and he's extremely passionate about helping the Stollary. Without you, this would not even remotely be possible. Please take a second and pat yourselves on the back. You guys carried this 24hr stream, you guys are the reason we're able to help young children get the care they need. You have a direct effect on a child's life. I'm sure Schad would agree with me, but we can't thank you enough for your generosity, kindness and compassion. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you."
I understand that we may have our differences in the community, but there is no community quite like what we have. You are all wonderful and I am so thankful to have met every single one of you.
