Due to the success of the Behemoth's Super Chicken Super Charity Haiti Fundraiser, the Behemoth is going to continue the fundraising through until this Friday, January 29th!
100 % of all revenue generated by downloadable content (dlc game add-ons, themes, and picture packs) for Castle Crashers or Alien Hominid on XBLA will be donated to disaster relief in Haiti. PLUS, The Behemoth will match the amount raised through dlc sales, for a Double Dose of Haitian Donation. This week they’ll be donating all the money raised to Doctors Without Borders/Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF), an international medical humanitarian organization.
So that’s a total of 200% of all revenue from dlc, Monday January 25 through Friday January 29th, going to MSF to help out with the continuing medical crisis in Haiti. Its a chance to support a really great cause that will benefit those who are in need and get to add some additional content to your games!
