You're not alone Amumu! (Skin Event)

After watching the recent music/lore video starring Amumu I was left crushed, heart broken and deeply worried for the livelihood of one of our dear champions. This honestly bothered me for a few days, I wanted to reach out to him, be Amumu’s Friend! It wasn’t until one of my friends set their in-game user status to “#FriendsForAmumu” that I had an epiphany! I realized that a positive could be obtained out of Amumu’s battle with immense sorrow.

On the news and other forms of media I have been constantly hearing of the loss of our youth to depression and suicide. I firmly believe Riot and the Gaming community is capable of bringing some light to this increasingly common tragedy in today’s youth.

I propose a charity skin event where select champions reach out to be Amumu’s friends, to help support him with his struggles and possibly ease his sorrow. A portion of the sales from the skins could be used to increase education/awareness on mental illness, depression, and suicide. Additionally the event itself would be promoting the act of reaching out to someone who may be in need(Amumu). The hashtag #FriendsForAmumu could also be used to promote the event throughout the gaming community.

I’d like to reinforce my belief that Riot and the gaming community as a whole could truly make a difference with this proposed event!

PS: I’m not overly artistic, I’m sure someone else could help me out on that end so the extent of my skin imagination so far is the select champions wearing Amumu T-shirts ( & Tibbers!, with an Amumu Shield)

Please feel free to contribute any art ideas in the comments below!

EDIT: On Reddit user Jesterio suggested including a Summoner Icon for those who participate in the event, I agree this would be a great addition!
