Players were able to purchase the Elderwood Ornn charity skin between December 2020 and January 2021.
The proceeds from all sales were donated to the Riot Games Social Impact Fund, a venture fund set by Riot to invest in numerous nonprofits and games-centric initiatives across the globe.
The fund, founded in 2019, is a separate entity from Riot s development and publishing arms. According to the company, the fund has generated over $15 million for various causes.
Last year, the company generated $6 million with a different charity skin, Dawnbringer Karma. Players were also able to nominate nonprofits in their local areas to receive a percentage of the funding.
