Once you log in to the game, you’ll receive the following pop-up message: “Sweet Seeds for Haiti is back! Click below and purchase a 7 day license for sweet yams! 50% of all contributions will help our friends in Haiti.” And if you click the button below the Sweet Yams in the marketplace, you’ll get further details:
“Donating 25, 55 or 240 Farm Cash to Zynga’s Relief Fund for Haiti will give all donors a collectable gift and 1-week permit to purchase and plant as many yam seeds as you wish, which will never wither”. Zynga will donate 50% from the sales to support the development of a new K-12 school in Haiti. And I am sure that many people will once again find it strange that Zynga’s “charity” only transfers 50% of the funds to Haiti and not all of them or at least 75%…
Either way, if you decide to do a good deed and donate, here are the stats for the Sweet Yam: costs 10 coins to plant, gives 125 coins after 6 hours, plus 3 XP points. The stats are pretty good!
Will you purchase the new Sweet Seeds for Haiti/Sweet Yams in FarmVille?
