Hello Everyone!

I bring you many greetings and much excitement from the Gamer’s Giving Back team! We will once again be hosting Pink Day in La in Lion’s Arch of both Guild Wars 1 and 2.

Never heard of Pink Day? Here is what we are about:

Since 2007 – The Guild Wars Community has been gathering in Lion’s Arch during a special day in October to raise up awareness for Cancer! In 2010 – Gamer’s Giving Back decided to make this event a fundraiser in support of Breast Cancer Research and Awareness. To date – we have raised over $40,000 towards the cause supporting the Canadian Cancer Society. Last year we had over 150 volunteers from the Guild Wars 1 and 2 Communities that helped out and they were amazing!

Why the Canadian Cancer Society?

We chose this group because I , M A L I B U Barbie, hail from Canada and they have an International Campaign as well.

When is this event?

October 19th from 12pm-6pm Central (-6 GMT)

Can my guild or myself an individual help out?

Of course! We will be having another Volunteer meeting on September 21st on the GW-EN Ventrilo – email admin@gw-en.com if you want more information about how to be involved.

Where can we find all the links and more information about the event?

You can check out the Pink Day in La Official Website here.

Okay this sounds amazing so far – are their events and/or prizes involved?

Yes and Yes! We will be posting the official hosting servers after our September 21st meeting, along with the somewhat complete donation and ingame prize list! You will have several ways to win:

1. Tuning in via the Gaming World Entertainment Network Radio Stream .

2. Donating $10 CDN or more to the event donation page which can be found here .

If you do so – you will be able to choose a number from 1-1000 and have a chance to win from a large number of amazing prizes! The list will be updated with photos through September and October as we are still receiving donations – so check back often! See the rules about the Donation Prizes on the official Pink Day website!

  • DONATE BEFORE THE END OF SEPTEMBER TO BE ENTERED IN FOR AN EARLY BIRD PRIZE DRAW (you still are eligible for the donation prize list as well) If we reach our early goal of $1337.00 we will make the draw, we promise that the winner of the early bird prize will NOT be disappointed!**

3. Participating in the many events that will be going on ingame on the servers that are participating – check back after September 21st to see if your server is hosting or where to guest! Prizes will include both ingame and real life prizes.

I am from a European Server – am I going to be able to participate?

Yes – we already have at least 3 European servers participating and we will ship any Real Life prizes to other countries – including Australia and New Zealand! So no one will get left out!

I am poor and really can’t donate to the event- can I still win things and help out?

ABSOLUTELY! The best way to show your support is to come out to Lion’s Arch on October 19th and wear pink! Spread the word and check out the media kit on our website. There are a number or posters and pictures you can sport on your Twitters, Facebooks, Websites etc etc.

ALSO – Follow us @PinkDayinLa and use #Pinkdayinla to spread the word! We want the entire Guild Wars Community to know about this event and be able to support the cause and win the prizes! We make several announcements here as well!

Can you give us a sneak peek on the prizes for the event?

Yes – some of the items you can look forward to:

  • 2 Guild Wars 2 Pocket Watches that are engraved – 1 North American Winner and 1 European winner
  • 1 Guild Wars 2 Collector’s Edition
  • 1 Arenanet Autographed Steel Series Mouse Pad
  • Guild Wars 2 Artbooks
  • 1 Portal Gun from Portal \o/ (The cake might be a lie, this is not!)
  • Several T-Shirts from Guild Wars 2, Rift and Wildstar!
  • Elder Scrolls Online Swag!
  • Ingame Codes – including Gems and Mini Mr. Sparkles!
  • 1 Autographed Jonathan Coulton T-Shirt
  • Defiance Artbooks and Ingame Codes
  • Steam Games!

and much much more! (Did we mention that we have been gathering ingame items like crazy? Ectos anyone?)

Let’s paint Lion’s Arch Pink – October 19th! See you there or be eaten by a Charr (Just kidding – but we might just give you over to Scarlet to turn you into soup) :o
