Zynga Does Some Good (For a Change)
Tweet
Zynga, creators of The Games Clogging Your Facebook News Feed and Stealing Your Data For Quite Some Time, are contributing to the flood of money heading toward Haiti for disaster relief purposes. (So are we! See our Gamers4Haiti Charity Drive post to see how you can help right here at GamingAngels.)
Users of these popular social networking games can purchase special limited-edition social goods, where 100% of the proceeds will go to the World Food Programme, which is currently distributing food and other forms of relief to those displaced and injured as a result of this week’s earthquake.
So far, over $1.2 million has been raised in support of these efforts. The limited-edition goods include white corn that will not wither if left unattended for a week (FarmVille) and a Haitian drum (Mafia Wars). Zynga has also set up their own donation portal at Zynga.com, where users can donate directly to the WFP (best option, in my opinion).
