Official Charity Corner 2018 Thread

This event is now over.

The event ran from March 12th at 12:00 pm NST, through March 23rd at 10:00am NST.

If you're not sure how CC works or have never been apart of one, the simplest explanation is that TNT asks for certain items, you donate these items, and get prizes in return. In previous years it has worked differently, but this year it appears you will earn points towards a prize shop. The higher the rarity item donated, the more points.

Points for donations:

r1-r79: 1 point
r80-89: 2 points
r90-97: 6 points
r98-r100: 8 points
r101: 1 point
r102-r175: 4 points
r200: 15 points

Does the rarity of the items I donate affect the points I earn?
Yes, the higher the rarity of an item you donate, the higher the points you earn for it.

For how long will the Make a Difference drive be available?
The Make a Difference Drive will start on the 12th of March at 10:00:00 NST and will go on for 11 days, ending on the 23rd of March at 10:00:00 NST.

How do I donate items to the Make a Difference Drive?
Head over to the Charity Corner hub page. For NP items, click Donate NP Items and pick items you want to donate from your inventory. These items will show up when you click on the drop down menus. Once you have selected all the items you want to donate, click Donate and contribute to the drive. Every item donated will earn you points that you can redeem at the prize shop after the event ends. For NC items, complete Step 1 by buying a pack of your choice and proceed to Step 2 to donate from your inventory. Items donated here will earn you a receipt that you can redeem at the Gift Shop immediately.

I have donated but haven’t got any prizes in return. When can I expect them?
Every donation will earn you points. Since Granny believes that charity should be for the sake of helping those in need and not a means to earn prizes, you can redeem the points you earn for something else instead. Something special that she has arranged for you by pulling some strings and getting in touch with some very influential people. At the end of the event, go over to the prize shop to redeem your points for these boons. Psst, don’t go telling you heard it from us!

Is there a specific kind of item you are looking for?
No. Anything you donate can and will make life a little better for those Neopians who have lost their homes and hearths to the destructions. From food to books to toys to everything else in between, every donation you make will earn you points that you can later redeem.

What can I donate to the Make a Difference Drive?
Absolutely anything! Granny is looking to rehabilitate all Neopians affected by the Wraiths and anything you can come forward with will go a long way in making that a success. Rest assured; your generosity won’t go unnoticed. Though Granny insists charity is only for the sake of charity this year, a little birdie told me she has something grand planned out! Granny will reward you with points for every item you donate to the drive and you can redeem your points at the prize shop for something extra special. Extra special what, you ask? You will have to find out, won’t you? At the end of the event, you will also receive a trophy and bonus prizes!

What is the Make a Difference Drive?
Charity Corner is an annual charitable event run by Granny Hopbobbin. The Year 20 version of the event is called the Make A Difference Drive as this year, the kindly Granny has decided to lend a hand and make a difference to the lives of all those who have been affected by the war against the Wraiths. You can join in and help make her event a roaring success by donating as many items as you possibly can. There are no limits to what or how much you can donate so be extra generous. Now, don’t go ask Granny what you are getting in return for your generosity. She will probably tell you off but we have it on good authority that something special is coming your way. Make sure to visit the prize shop at the end of the event.

Hopefully these boons are good... ugh.

[gamerkid1]

Honestly, if the prizes are only boons, its going to be a total flop

[espnnnnnn]

I'm really looking forward to donating all of my excess ectoplasm to get a bunch of keyrings in return!!!

In all seriousness, if the prizes aren't random, nothing will be worth anything and this probably will be a waste of time.

[DrSloth]

they fucked up with CC, i spend 30m since it was my first cc and got really disapointted, someone should make a program to donate it all now that we get nothing in return

[Daviid]

I don't think they fucked up, at least prices won't go down.

[munsterpoo]

I think this is a good idea - the randomness / deflation is what they were trying to fix but made it worse.

[rmichi1]

There's some r200 items that aren't inflated, yet!!

[DrSloth]

I don't think they fucked up, at least prices won't go down.

areyou sure? let's see untill jn post the prizes and the top prize is an elderly paint brush and the top donaters will be able to buy 100 of them lol such a disgrace

Now debating if I should get points or sell and make extra NPs
