An emergency appeal was launched by PokerStars and Full Tilt parent company, The Rational Group this week, one which is intended to assist CARE International’s response to Cyclone Pam which devastated the Pacific Island nation of Vanuatu five days ago.
PokerStars and Full Tilt will match $1 for $1 the amount donated by players and staff through :
– FPPs in the VIP Store accessible via https://www.pokerstars.com/vip/store/product/?category=charity-donation_global_all_all&product=vanuatu-cyclone-emergency-appeal_global_all_all or;
– cash donations to CARE at http://www.careinternational.org.uk/pokerstars-cyclone-appeal
“The poker community rallied so strongly when we appealed in 2013 in the wake of Typhoon Haiyan,” Sue Hammett, head of corporate giving for Rational Group said. “We hope that you can find it in your heart to donate again. Your contribution really will make a difference to people pushed close to the edge.”
