In honor of placing 100,000 veterans into high-quality jobs, the Call of Duty Endowment is hosting the first-ever charity race inside of a video game. Support the Endowment by running within Call of Duty: Warzone from May 26 – June 3 when Activision will allocate $1 for every 10km run in-game as part of a $1 million total donation, and get the chance to earn in-game and out-of-game prizes for your efforts.
The Call of Duty Veteruns event begins May 26 and lasts through June 3. Here’s how it all works:
Overview and Rules
The rules are simple: run on foot inside Call of Duty: Warzone throughout the Call of Duty Veteruns event.
For every 10km run in-game between May 26 and June 3, Activision Blizzard will allocate $1 to the Endowment, up to $10 per player as part of a $1 million total donation towards placing the next 100,000 veterans into meaningful employment. That’s a lot of funding that will directly impact the lives of veterans in need of quality jobs.
Earn in-game Calling Cards for your efforts, with a rare bronze titled Calling Card awarded after running 25 km, epic silver after 50 km, and legendary gold at 100 km.
