This will be the 3rd year of GrSD , and while many local subreddits had awesome service events, organizing volunteer events for large groups of people is really hard. There just weren’t enough events to match the interest from local users. So this year, we’ve partnered with the Imagination Foundation so that local organizers can plug into their Global Cardboard Challenge events.

reddit users then helped the Caine’s Arcade video go viral, which helped raise over $239,000 for Caine’s College Fund and inspired kids to start making their own cardboard arcades. Parents and educators started sharing pictures, and a few days later a non-profit to foster creativity in more kids like Caine was started. This became the Imagination Foundation, whose goal is to foster and support creativity for kids throughout the world, and the Global Cardboard Challenge was their first program.
