Where to Find Charity Boxes in Starsand Island
Charity Boxes are special boxes that you may find across the island and can interact with periodically. These treasure troves, when interacted with, will reward you with various items that can be of great use in your adventures on the island, as well as when pursuing the many profession paths.
The Charity Boxes are closely associated with most of the main professions: Exploration, Farming, Fishing, and Ranching, and when searching through them, there's a chance you can receive items relating to said professions. Luckily for players, there isn't a requirement to locate and search through them, as they are found in the open world and near the locations of four of the five profession mentors.
- AquaBlue Outpost Charity Box (Fishing): Near the scooter rental site by the AquaBlue Outpost tackle shop at Half-Moon Bay
- Exploration Club Charity Box (Exploration): In front of the Exploration Club in Green Meadow
- Green Pasture Charity Box (Ranching): At the stone fence entrance to the Green Pasture Ranch in Green Meadow
- Honest Seed Charity Box (Farming): At the farm behind the Happiness Seed Shop in Starsand Town
You can also shake vending machines for free snacks and drinks, and rummage through trash bins for interesting items you can sell for money.
How to Use the Charity Boxes in Starsand Island
Using the provided map and detailed descriptions of where to find the Charity Boxes, you will be able to recognize them due to their bright yellow color. Approach the boxes to get an interaction option to search them, where you may or may not receive items pertaining to that profession.
An example would be searching the AquaBlue Outpost Charity Box at Half-Moon Bay, which could reward you with fish, or searching the Exploration Club Charity Box, which may reward you with ammo and other unique items. One thing to note is that these boxes do replenish periodically, so if you're in the vicinity of a Charity Box, search through it to see what you may find.
