“We now face an unprecedented global challenge for all humankind, and given the global nature of EVE and the solidarity of the EVE community, we are activating PLEX for GOOD again to begin on 3 April 2020 with the aim of raising funds for the COVID-19 Solidarity Response Fund.”

Any money raised through PLEX For GOOD will aid the WHO in their effort to ort countries to prevent, detect, and respond to COVID-19. If you want to participate in this initiative,  contract PLEX in-game to the character CCP PLEX for GOOD.
