CCP has announced that their recent charity drive for the devastation in Japan has raised $44,607.50. EVE Online players donated over a two-week period to raise the above amount.

The breakdown of donations was as follows:

2497 PLEX were donated through 665 contracts.

There were 18 ISK donations totaling 19.6 billion ISK. 52 PLEX were purchased in-game using these donations.

In total, 2549 PLEX were collected, and 100% of the proceeds will be donated to the Red Cross in the name of "EVE Online Community."

PLEX for Good is an on-going charitable program initiated by the players of EVE Online. Past drives have assisted the victims of the Haiti earthquake and excessive flooding in Pakistan. To date, EVE Online players have donated over $108,000 (over 6100 PLEX) to those in need via this program, with almost $155,000 being donated by EVE Online players to charity since 2004.
