Many of you have said that you think one of the coolest events in Club Penguin is Coins For Change — when players donate virtual coins in the game to decide where $1 million is donated in the real world. This year, the donations were totally amazing (more than 2.5 million penguins donated more than 3 billion virtual coins!) and we were awed by your spirit of giving.

Your efforts paid off – and we wanted to give you an update. I talked to someone on the team who’s an expert in global citizenship:

What’s the best part of the Coins For Change campaign? Seeing how much penguins around the globe want to make the world a better place!

When have you been the proudest of the Club Penguin community?When they show how much they care for each other and the world around them by giving to something they believe in that will benefit others they don’t even know!

If you could tell the community one thing, what would it be?Every single penguin can make a difference in the world when they come together for a common cause – just look what’s been done this past Coins For Change!

Check out the new video at the Coins for Change page – it shows some of the great things that have happened because of your generosity during the Coins For Change program in Club Penguin. We’re all crazy proud of this community. Hats off (and candy) to all of you.

Until then… Waddle on!

Hello Penguins!

In January, some of you may remember that the member badge was added. Since then, you’ve given us great ideas about how they could be updated and how they could be used in different ways! A lot of you tell us that you’re proud to be a member, so the team’s been busy working on an update to the badge to reflect the amount of months you’ve signed up for as a member.

There are five different badges in total, each one displaying a range of months:

	Level 1	Level 2	Level 3	Level 4	Level 5

You’ll be able to see the update today. In Other News: This Thursday, you might notice that when you’re chatting with your penguin friends, the font in your chat bubbles will look different! Not everyone could see the other font very easily on their computers so we updated it to make it better for everyone.

As always, we’d love to hear what you think!

Until then…Waddle on!
