Our Mission
 Child's Play is dedicated to improving the lives of
 children in hospitals around the world through the
     kindness and generosity of the video game
         community and the power of play.
   Child’s Play is always striving to pursue new
opportunities and expand the positive impact of the
 cause. This includes consistently researching and
   pursuing alternate fundraising channels, new
  donation platforms, additional events and better
                 community support.
  When gamers give back, it makes a difference!
Gaming Marathons
• Players will host livestreams where
  they will tackle a variety of games,
  beat a single game, or just play for 24
  hours.
• Many streamers will giveaway special
  prizes to viewers who donate giving
  people a strong incentive to chip in.
• The success rate is very high as
  many streamers who do host charity
Inputs
To host a gaming marathon, you’ll need:
• Livestream gear (Xsplit is free!)
• A PC with a generous amount of RAM to assure a smooth
   stream while gaming.
• A donation box! (ChipIn, Paypal, etc. have widgets you can
   add to your page)
• Energy! These can last a very long time so be prepared.
• Have prizes to distribute to your viewers for donating!
• No one has to be adept at any of these things. We will
   provide as much information as needed to help you get your
   stream started!

  It’s amazing to see how the community comes together for a
 cause and we are proud to support anyone that is willing to do
Outputs
• We have over 70 hospitals worldwide with
  wishlists that we have fulfilled.
• We have over 70 different corporate
  sponsors that contribute to our events. Some
  of our Platinum sponsors are Google,
  Amazon, Microsoft, Nintendo, Sony and
  Warner Bros.

 This shows the power the gaming community
 has as a team and the positive effect gaming
           can have on a child’s life.
Outcomes
•   Less stress for the children
•   Acts as a distraction
•   Brings the family together to have fun
•   Hospitals will have more activities
•   Keeps kids from being depressed
•   Improves public opinion of the video gaming
Processes
• We work with gamers that host charity
  streams and promote their channel through
  major gaming and tech sites as well as our
  very own Penny-Arcade website.
• We work right alongside hospitals to create
  their wishlists and rely on the promotion from
  the streamers to help their wishlist be fulfilled.
  With the kindness of the gaming community,
  we are able to assist hospitals in providing
  fun, and entertainment for the kids that are
  bedridden and are limited to what they can
  do.
The Community Need
• We have over 70 hospitals worldwide that we work
  with and were able to raise $3,512,340 in 2011.
• Working with the help of hospital staff, we set up gift
  wish lists full of video games, toys, tablets, books, and
  other fun stuff for kids.
• With those cash donations, we purchase new
  consoles, peripherals, games, and more for hospitals
  and therapy facilities. These donations allow for
  children to enjoy age-appropriate entertainment,
  interact with their peers, friends, and family, and can
  provide vital distraction from an otherwise generally
  unpleasant experience.
The Shuttleworth Foundation
The Shuttleworth Foundation is striving to       The Child’s Play Charity can offer the
create an open knowledge society, both in        community and the world a foundation in
South Africa and around the world. It is a       which kids can escape their reality, “are
vision that will only be truly realised when     free to learn, invent, innovate” during their
all people are free to learn, invent, innovate   time at the hospital and to have the kids
and, ultimately, create their own                enjoy themselves despite whatever the
opportunities.                                   reason for being at the hospital.
The Shuttleworth Foundation are looking          We at Child’s Play Charity are social
for social innovators who are helping to         innovators helping to change the world with
change the world for the better and are          this revolutionary take on bringing the
looking for some support through an              home environment to the kids, it’s a big
innovative social investment model.              step to create a solid hospital environment
                                                 that kids won’t be afraid to remember, but
                                                 rather remember it as being a home away
                                                 from home experience.

                                                 the world in innovative ways and we are
                                                 doing just that.
Critical Thinking
Gaming is a highly controversial topic, and has
been for many years. There are many theories
that gaming can reduce learning, develop anti-
 social behaviors and habits, as well as violent
                behavior as well.
  Though we are gamers, that perception errs
     the vision we have for the community.
      With the work we strive to do for the
community, it is imperative that our jobs are to
develop ways to encourage gaming in the most
  positive way possible so that parents aren’t
discouraged by our efforts and the kids can feel
       more secure in their surroundings.
Critical Thinking
 To confidently provide what the children
   need in hospitals so that they will be in
     good spirits during their time there.
  Working with the nurses and doctors to
       maximize the chances for fun
     environment for the kids versus an
              unwelcome one.
The opportunity for children to have a fun
  environment in the hospital will serve as
   an undergird for many generations to
    come that are afraid of the hospitals
                     now.
Corporate Sponsor Ranking



Child’s Play has three levels of sponsorship:
      silver, gold, and platinum. These
 sponsorships run for 12 months, starting in
  November of each year. Each includes a
home page logo placement with link. We are
  a registered 501(c)(3) non-profit, and are
always happy to participate in corporate gift
Why It Matters To Me
 Gaming has always been a part of my life. It
 brought my family together for fun game nights,
   and it brought me to meet amazing people
    throughout the different communities. The
  gaming communities I am involved with host
   events to support players that struggle with
cancer, or other diseases to be supportive. It is a
    family of friends that are passionate about
   something that is meant to be fun and bring
                   people together.
How To Get Involved
For hospitals:
1. We create a “Wish List” for your hospital
   at one of the major online retailers (such
   as Amazon.com).
2. We (and other game/tech sites) drive
   traffic to this Wish List.
3. Generous gamers from all over the world
   buy items off the list, which are shipped
   from the retailer directly to your hospital.
How To Get Involved
For everyone:
• View gamers play your favorite games or
  any game on their livestreams and donate
  to win prizes through them, or donate
  directly on our website!
Another Way To Get Involved
If you’ve discovered something new and
    want to share your passion for video
    games and supporting the charity, we
     encourage you to create your own
 livestream account through Twitch.tv and
 start streaming! We will gladly add you to
  our calendar of events as you host your
         very own charity livestream.

Project 1 // Child's Play Charity

  • 1. Giving through the power of play. Grace Lim Read142 D. Hughes MW 10:10am
  • 2. Our Mission Child's Play is dedicated to improving the lives of children in hospitals around the world through the kindness and generosity of the video game community and the power of play. Child’s Play is always striving to pursue new opportunities and expand the positive impact of the cause. This includes consistently researching and pursuing alternate fundraising channels, new donation platforms, additional events and better community support. When gamers give back, it makes a difference!
  • 3. Gaming Marathons • Players will host livestreams where they will tackle a variety of games, beat a single game, or just play for 24 hours. • Many streamers will giveaway special prizes to viewers who donate giving people a strong incentive to chip in. • The success rate is very high as many streamers who do host charity
  • 4. Inputs To host a gaming marathon, you’ll need: • Livestream gear (Xsplit is free!) • A PC with a generous amount of RAM to assure a smooth stream while gaming. • A donation box! (ChipIn, Paypal, etc. have widgets you can add to your page) • Energy! These can last a very long time so be prepared. • Have prizes to distribute to your viewers for donating! • No one has to be adept at any of these things. We will provide as much information as needed to help you get your stream started! It’s amazing to see how the community comes together for a cause and we are proud to support anyone that is willing to do
  • 5. Outputs • We have over 70 hospitals worldwide with wishlists that we have fulfilled. • We have over 70 different corporate sponsors that contribute to our events. Some of our Platinum sponsors are Google, Amazon, Microsoft, Nintendo, Sony and Warner Bros. This shows the power the gaming community has as a team and the positive effect gaming can have on a child’s life.
  • 6. Outcomes • Less stress for the children • Acts as a distraction • Brings the family together to have fun • Hospitals will have more activities • Keeps kids from being depressed • Improves public opinion of the video gaming
  • 7. Processes • We work with gamers that host charity streams and promote their channel through major gaming and tech sites as well as our very own Penny-Arcade website. • We work right alongside hospitals to create their wishlists and rely on the promotion from the streamers to help their wishlist be fulfilled. With the kindness of the gaming community, we are able to assist hospitals in providing fun, and entertainment for the kids that are bedridden and are limited to what they can do.
  • 8. The Community Need • We have over 70 hospitals worldwide that we work with and were able to raise $3,512,340 in 2011. • Working with the help of hospital staff, we set up gift wish lists full of video games, toys, tablets, books, and other fun stuff for kids. • With those cash donations, we purchase new consoles, peripherals, games, and more for hospitals and therapy facilities. These donations allow for children to enjoy age-appropriate entertainment, interact with their peers, friends, and family, and can provide vital distraction from an otherwise generally unpleasant experience.

  • 10. Critical Thinking Gaming is a highly controversial topic, and has been for many years. There are many theories that gaming can reduce learning, develop anti- social behaviors and habits, as well as violent behavior as well. Though we are gamers, that perception errs the vision we have for the community. With the work we strive to do for the community, it is imperative that our jobs are to develop ways to encourage gaming in the most positive way possible so that parents aren’t discouraged by our efforts and the kids can feel more secure in their surroundings.

Working with the nurses and doctors to maximize the chances for fun environment for the kids versus an unwelcome one. The opportunity for children to have a fun environment in the hospital will serve as an undergird for many generations to come that are afraid of the hospitals now.

  • 13. Why It Matters To Me Gaming has always been a part of my life. It brought my family together for fun game nights, and it brought me to meet amazing people throughout the different communities. The gaming communities I am involved with host events to support players that struggle with cancer, or other diseases to be supportive. It is a family of friends that are passionate about something that is meant to be fun and bring people together.
  • 14. How To Get Involved For hospitals: 1. We create a “Wish List” for your hospital at one of the major online retailers (such as Amazon.com). 2. We (and other game/tech sites) drive traffic to this Wish List. 3. Generous gamers from all over the world buy items off the list, which are shipped from the retailer directly to your hospital.
  • 15. How To Get Involved For everyone: • View gamers play your favorite games or any game on their livestreams and donate to win prizes through them, or donate directly on our website!
  • 16. Another Way To Get Involved If you’ve discovered something new and want to share your passion for video games and supporting the charity, we encourage you to create your own livestream account through Twitch.tv and start streaming! We will gladly add you to our calendar of events as you host your very own charity livestream.
