Coming Together to Support COVID-19 Relief and Recovery Efforts

The COVID-19 pandemic has affected us all in profound ways. With school closures, job disruptions, and food insecurities, we know there is an urgent need to ensure the health and well-being of families across the world.

In times of crisis, we’ve been humbled by the outpouring of support from the Roblox community. We’ve united on multiple occasions to contribute aid to people affected by earthquakes, hurricanes, and tsunamis. Now, at a time when the whole world could use a helping hand, we want to provide an opportunity for the community to come together once again to support those in need.

In the spirit of social solidarity, we’d like to offer a series of limited-edition items—some created by members of the community—to support No Kid Hungry, UNICEF USA, and Code.org’s COVID-19 relief and recovery efforts. Your donations will provide food for millions of children across America; distribute essential supplies such as clean water, soap, medical supplies, and protective equipment to where they’re needed most around the world; and/or provide resources for students to continue their education at home. The items will be available through June 30th or until their collective sales reach $1,000,000—whichever comes first. Special thanks to poIarcub, xSkxia, Rush_X, Yourius, CaioAlbarnBR, and Mimi_Dev for lending their talents to this cause!

You are free to support whichever organizations you wish. For all Robux you spend on these items, Roblox will donate a matching amount (based on a value of $0.01 for each Robux spent) to the organization(s) of your choice, up to a combined total of $1,000,000. On top of that, Roblox will also donate up to an additional $1,000,000 to match what you have spent amongst the three organizations.
