Haiti Donations Doubled at Cake Poker

by Jake St. Pierre 14. January 2010 13:22

 

All Haiti relief donations made through Cake Poker will be matched.

 

In response to the crisis in Haiti, Cake Poker has established three special tournament “holding tanks” which will allow players to make donations to the American Red Cross for Haitian relief simply by registering for them. All donations made by players will be matched by Cake Poker.

You can make a donation by registering in one of the tournaments listed in red and titled “Haiti Donations (not an MTT).” There are three donation amounts, $5, $25, and $100. Remember, there will be no actual poker playing involved, these are strictly for donation purposes.

The donation tournaments are currently up and open for registration in the Cake Poker Tournament Lobby and will run until midnight ET on January 31.

EDIT: $200 and $500 donation options have now also been added.

thanks for the double we all need to do something every $ counts help them, THEY HAVE NOTHING WE LIVE LIKE BILL GATES COMPARED TO THEM give
Thanks again Cake you made it easy for us to give, also why not make a tourney where half the money goes to the charity??? just a thought like a 25 or 50 or 100 buy in with half going to charity
