Child's Play 2009 has begun!
DemonKyoto | 2:22 PM on 11.07.2009 0 comments


For those of you who don’t know, Child’s Play is a charity that was started in 2003 by the guys over at Penny Arcade. The goal of Child’s Play is to help out sick children around the world by helping them do what they should be doing: playing games and having fun.

Since it’s inception, Child’s Play has received over $5,000,000 in monetary/video game donations around the world, all of which goes towards sick kid’s hospitals in the USA, Canada, UK, Australia, New Zealand, and Germany.

Before going out to the store and buying that new game you want, give the website a look, and see if you don’t think the money would be better served going towards a child, to make their Christmas a little bit brighter this year.

Destructoid is an open discussion community. You don't need to "audition" to post a comment - just speak your mind. We respect differing opinions on the site, so have at it. Be smart, funny, insightful, clueless, or cute -- but back it up with substance. Keep your cool, keep it fun. We only ask that you act respectfully and above all: don't be a troll and ruin it for everyone else. Don't bring down gamers or we'll, you know, gently shoot you in the face and stuff you into a flaming mailbox. Each comment is your opportuntity to make this community awesomer. Is that even a word?

Avoiding the banhammer only requires common sense: spamming, trolling, racism, NSFW stuff, and other forms of sucking will not be tolerated. If anyone is griefing please report abuse. Be good. Don't suck!
