Cheapy D and the fine folks at Cheap Ass Gamer have managed to pull together over $17,000 for videogame charity Child's Play. They started their own CAG Fund for Child's Play in the hopes of raising $10,000, but now Cheap D says that they're shooting for $25,000. It's kind of hard to call them cheap knowing that!
The work this awesome charity does makes it easy to donate to, but Cheap Ass Gamer has made it even easier with their raffle. Every $5 donated through their ChipIn widget gives you a chance to win several prizes, with the top prize being a $500 Amazon gift card. Other runner-up prizes include Xbox 360, Wii, PSP, or DS systems, games, and more.
Our hats are off to Cheapy D and the Cheap Ass Gamer community. Let's see if ours can help them reach their $25,000 goal. Check out the video from Cheapy D and Mini D above for more information.
Head here to donate.

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!

Child's Play > Carl's Jr.
Also, Cheapy Jr. is adorable.
My $20 goes to Child's Play instead of giving to an evil corporation called Gamestop.
