[DE]CoreyOnline Posted February 16, 2023 Share Posted February 16, 2023 Warframe is proudly participating in SpecialEffect’s GameBlast23 fundraising campaign! SpecialEffect is a UK based charity that helps thousands of people who want to play video games, but whose physical disabilities stop or limit their ability to play. Join us on twitch.tv/warframe Thursday, February 23rd at 6 p.m. ET for a special Prime Time jam packed with giveaways featuring Danielle, Marcus, and SpecialEffect’s Gaming Community Manager Paige Harvey! Tenno are invited to tune in, redeem the week’s Twitch drops, and consider donating what they can! You can donate to SpecialEffect through our JustGiving campaign at https://wrfr.me/gameblast23 Digital Extremes is excited to announce that we will be matching the community’s donation total, up to $5,000.00 CAD. In other words, if the Tenno collectively raise $5,000 CAD, Digital Extremes will donate an additional $5,000 CAD on top of that, allowing us to raise $10,000 CAD in support of developing technology to assist physically disabled gamers! If we achieve our fundraising milestones, we’ll unlock a built Forma Alert and a 2 Day Double Affinity Booster for all Tenno in-game on March 4-5! We’ll also be cycling through Platinum and Prime Access raffles every $1000 Raised!
