Please take a look! We can help change the world!

Hello, summoners and rioters. Is overwhelming seen paris at this moment. Im not a paris citizen but i defend hope and freedom. After i saw the news i was wondering.... how can i help? Search on google and i got a TIME News post "How to Help Those Affected by the Paris Attacks", so we can Donate to the Red Cross or Donate to Doctors Without Borders. Its the standart. BUT, we all know not all the people act or feel the same about the world. Some of us just want to stay put and play games. The best way is to help by not offering but trading.

So my ideia here is, Riot, why dont you create a skin for a champ, ward or other that a percentage of the total price goes to help Paris? We both know that you would get a huge help from summoners to trade their money for a skin that offers % to help others. I can already tell you that i see people doing that on daily basis. Like if you donate "x" you will get a free extra coffe. I hope you think about this, i made this post because i made twitter on @LeagueOfLegends based on that.

Good one. Riot is to greedy to donate even a penny.

Lmao, this is the same company that purposefully set us up so we couldn't get Pool Party Mundo, or add a new server for west coast, so both west/east coast in NA could have average ping. Riot is owned by a Chinese company called " Ten cent", but I bet they won't donate even one cent.

They've done charity work before http://www.riotgames.com/articles/20110405/146/players-raise-over-160000-red-cross so it's not totally out of the question I'd think. You can always donate through your own means though, get a sense for what they could use most right now? Money, positive words, volunteer work? We are with you France <3

FIORA would be perfect for this with her french accent!

maybe based on paintings of Jean Béraud? "Jean Béraud was a French painter, noted for his paintings of Parisian life during the Belle Époque. He was renowned in Paris society due to his numerous paintings depicting the life of Paris, and the nightlife of Paris society."

Ofc riot may or may not donate funds but they can spread awareness with ingame content. This case, they dont even have to donate but only make people care more :D
