Childs Play Charity


So often when I think of items that are donated to less privileged children I think of clothes and maybe some toys. I recently came across a pretty cool organization that donates DVD and Video Games to children who are in the hospital. childsplaycharity.org is the name of the organization.


Here's information on this group via their website:

Since 2003, over 100,000 gamers worldwide have banded together through Child’s Play, a community based charity grown and nurtured from the game culture and industry. Over two million dollars in donations of toys, games, books and cash for sick kids in children’s hospitals across North America and the world have been collected since our inception.
This year, we have continued expanding across the country and the globe. With over 45 partner hospitals and more arriving every month, you can be sure to find one from the map above that needs your help! You can choose to purchase requested items from their online retailer wish lists, or make a cash donation that helps out Child’s Play hospitals everywhere. Any items purchased through Amazon will be shipped directly to your hospital of choice, so please be sure to select their shipping address rather than your own.

It's so great fining organizations like this one who are going about the business of making a difference. i hope you this information useful and remember we do not have to wait for the holidays to give to others :-)




Thank you,

Vince
