100% of proceeds from the League of Legends Star Guardian Taliyah skin will go to the Social Impact Fund, Riot Games’ charity that provides them with an “easier and more scalable” way to achieve greater change globally. The fund is designed to promote equality in education, opportunity and global citizenship.

Last year, Riot held its biggest in-game fundraiser with Sentinels of Light, a League of Legends event in which players raised $5.8 million for the fund. This was followed by 30 nonprofits, each receiving a $10,000 grant. Valorant also held its first in-game fundraiser, raising $5.5 million through the purchase of a cosmetic pack.

The Social Impact Fund has its main focus on education, but has also focused on areas of opportunity in the last two years. With $2 million raised to help those hit by global restrictions in recent years, along with $5.4 million raised this year for those affected by the war in Ukraine, it’s becoming clear that Riot Games is committed to global change, one cosmetic at a time.

Today (July 29) Riot announced that any profits made from the new Taliyah Star Guardian skin will contribute directly to the Social Impact Fund. The nonprofit received a Golden Halo Award for fundraising in the 2020 Dawnbringer Karma game, so it’s clear that events like this raise a lot of money. Players can feel better about themselves knowing they are making a difference with their purchase; It also helps that they look great at the same time.

The League of Legends Star Guardian event runs until August 15th, giving you another 2 weeks of work to finish Another Sky, claim your rewards, and collect any skins that catch your eye. Any Taliyah headliner, or anyone looking to donate to a good cause, make sure her Star Guardian skin is at the top of her list.
