When



This Monday March 19th 11am central I will be holding a charity event for Child's Play. I will be playing Pokemon Blue for 24+ hours





Why



First of all why grassroots? Well because I will be going back to my grassroots of gaming and be playing Pokemon Blue for 24+ hours. We have all been quite busy with tons of StarCraft tournaments lately i thought we might take a step back and go back to where for some of us it all began.



Another reason I will be doing this is because our manner bear Sheth has been busy practicing for these tournaments and team killing all over the place he has not had time to do any charity's of his own so I thought I would step in and try to help out.



Goal



My goal of course is to raise awareness about Child's Play Charity and to reach over $1000 in donations



About Child's Play



Since 2003, we’ve set up and organized Child’s Play, a game industry charity dedicated to improving the lives of children with toys and games in our network of over 70 hospitals worldwide. Over the years, you as a community have answered the call and come together to raise millions of dollars.



Child’s Play works in two ways. With the help of hospital staff, we set up gift wish lists full of video games, toys, books, and other fun stuff for kids. By clicking on a hospital location on our map, you can view that hospital’s wish list and send a gift.



Child’s Play also receives cash donations throughout the year. 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.



About me



Currently a Starcraft2 caster for Playhem, KSL, ONOG, and other organizations.
