di: Antonio "Difio" Di FinizioRicorderete sicuramente l’iniziativa che Sony ha avviato in seguito al recente disastroso terremoto che ha colpito il Giappone lo scorso marzo.
Ebbene oggi il colosso nipponico ha annunciato che la cifra accumulata dalle offerte dei giocatori di PlayStation ha raggiunto i 109,6 milioni di yen (approssimativamente 1 milione e 300 mila dollari). I contributi raccolti sono devoluti direttamente alla Croce Rossa Inglese, membro della Croce Rossa Internazionale. Ogni singolo centesimo andrà al Fondo per il Giappone che supporterà le operazioni di soccorso e le attività di risanamento, incluso il dispiegamento di personale, l’invio di provviste e risorse finanziarie per ogni altro tipo di supporto.
Per ulteriori informazioni vi lasciamo al comunicato ufficiale.
