Child’s Play!
As the holiday season fast approaches (Seriously, stores? Christmas decorations already?), it’s a time when one’s mind turns to good will towards others, at least when not scoping out the latest pre-Black Friday sales. I just last night saw that this year’s Child’s Play charity is now active.
Since 2003, over 100,000 gamers worldwide have banded together through Child’s Play, a community based charity grown and nurtured from the game culture and industry. Over two million dollars in donations of toys, games, books and cash for sick kids in children’s hospitals across North America and the world have been collected since our inception.
I have been proud to donate in the past, and am proud to contribute yet again. Last year they added my local Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia. This year the children over there will see the following books from me:
- Where the Wild Things Are
- Alexander and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day
- Cloudy With a Chance of Meatballs
So if you have it in your hearts and wallets, I encourage you to donate even a small amount to this great charity that really contributes to better quality of life for children stuck in hospitals.
