United We Help! Perfect World Gives Back...

In years to come, I bet nobody would easily forget the ordeal that everyone has to go through during the rage of typhoons Ondoy (Ketsana) and Pepeng (Parma). Thousands lost their homes, possessions and sadly, loved ones. The damage amounted to billions, but the trauma, grief and pain these two caused are far greater...

Some of us were lucky enough to be spared from the rampage of these two storms, however, a lot of people including some of our brothers and sisters in the gaming community are still in the evacuation centers, awaiting help. Relief efforts have been on going, but there's still so much work to be done.

Level Up! Games Incorporated, the Philippines' first and Leading Online Game Publisher, (a staunch advocate of responsible gaming) in cooperation with Gawad Kalinga (a Philippine-based poverty reduction and nation-building movement that cares for worse-off Filipinos and survivors of natural disasters) and Perfect World(PWRD) Beijing LTD, (China's Leading Game Developer and Publisher) is currently conducting Sos Para Sa Mga Biktima Nina Ondoy At Pepeng which will run from October 26,2009 to November 6, 2009. The project aims not only to raise money for the victims of the typhoon, but let gamers like us participate and show compassion in our own little way. All the proceeds generated from Sos Pra sa Mga Biktima ni Ondoy at Pepeng will be donated to GAWAD KALINGA.

So How do we Help? It's very simple, one just has to buy the "Ondoy Relief Package" (SOS fireworks) special in-game item at the Perfect World Item Mall (Fireworks > Clans).

The item is priced at 100 gold or equivalent to Five (5) pesos. That's a small amount but will definitely be put to good use.

This might just be a small act of kindness but it will definitely go a long way to help rebuild the lives of these people.
