Righteous Glory: A Charity Tournament and Donation Drive is a tournament event where League of Legends players have come together to test their skills against each other and at the same time, help out their fellow Filipinos. In this tournament, instead of paying a registration fee, the players are required to donate food, old clothes, toys, or any non-cash items.
As of right now, 23 teams have joined the tournament with more still signing up and donating. Included among these teams are players from known groups such as La Liga Pilipinas, Profilers of the Unknown (P.O.T.U.) and Celestial eSports. Aside from players who wish to participate in the tournament, there are also players who have come to simply support the event and do their part in helping out by donating to the event. All the proceeds gathered will be given to the Department of Social Welfare and Development (D.S.W.D.) who will then distribute it to the victims of the recent typhoons Nona and Onyok.
The tournament prize pool of P6,000 which was provided by Wargods, POTU, La Liga Pilipinas, Overdrive eSports, Vindicators eSports Club, and Rumble Royale will be split among the winners with P4,000 going to the champion and P2,000 to the runner-up.
The donation drive will continue until the end of the event which is estimated to be at around 7 p.m. (GMT+8). Until then, feel free to head over to give donations for our fellow Filipinos.
