Child's Play

Started by the founders of Penny Arcade, Mike Krahulik and Jerry Holkins in 2003 uniting the gaming community and highlighting the good in the industry when Gamers Give Back! Child’s Play seeks to improve the lives of children and teens in children’s hospitals and other child welfare facilities through the kindness and generosity of the gamer community and the power of play.

Focusing on helping change the patient experience, Child’s Play works closely with Child Life departments to understand their technology needs, provide solutions to gaming roadblocks and support their hospitals program with in-kind and cash contributions. We support more than 180 hospitals worldwide and 200 Domestic Violence Shelters in the US alone.
