News - Guardian’s Heart - xSicKxBot - 04-14-2020 Guardian’s Heart <div style="margin: 5px 5% 10px 5%;"><img src="https://www.sickgaming.net/blog/wp-content/uploads/2020/04/guardians-heart.png" width="2125" height="638" title="" alt="" /></div><div><p>As the world responds to the outbreak of COVID-19, many of us have been urged by our local governments to stay home. Containing the spread of the virus is one of the best things we can do to protect our fellow humans. If you are a gamer, you’ve been training for this moment for your whole life. If you possess the heart of a Guardian, however, you might be wrestling with an urge to do more!</p> <p>In response to these trying times, Bungie is excited to announce the Guardian’s Heart fundraising initiative. In partnership with Direct Relief, and in collaboration with our community, we want to bring the full might of the Bungie community to support the healthcare workers and frontline responders who are confronting this global healthcare crisis.</p> <p><b>Our Partners</b></p> <p>According to their own Mission: <b>“Direct Relief is a humanitarian aid organization, active in all 50 states and more than 80 countries, with a mission to improve the health and lives of people affected by poverty or emergencies – without regard to politics, religion, or ability to pay.”</b></p> <div> <img src="https://www.bungie.net/pubassets/pkgs/134/134977/DR.png?cv=3983621215&av=2288632219"></div> <p>We have worked previously with Direct Relief to provide aid to survivors of a devastating earthquake in Nepal. We knew we would want to work with them again someday, so we created an in-game emblem using their colors (more on that below). For this fundraising response initiative, all the money that we raise as Guardians will go directly to them.</p> <p><b>The Beneficiaries</b></p> <p>Direct Relief will work with a network of providers across the globe to deliver the supplies that healthcare workers need. This includes basic personal protective equipment, including gloves, masks, gowns, and face shields. The hospitals where they work will also receive food covers, prescription medication, portable oxygen concentrators, ventilators, and other intensive care unit equipment. </p> <p><b>Your Reward</b></p> <div>As evidence of your kindness, a donation of $20 or more will earn you the Guardian’s Heart Emblem in Destiny 2.
