Donate once, support 7 game-related charities from now through September 24!


We are excited to participate once again in One Gamer Fund, an initiative to benefit seven game-related charities that support gamers or game developers: AbleGamers, Child's Play, Global Game Jam, the IGDA Foundation, Stack-Up, Take This, and Games for Change.

Inspired by United Way, One Gamer Fund will raise funds and evenly distribute the proceeds amongst the supported charities. 

Here's how you can support One Gamer Fund this weekend before the campaign ends on September 24th at 10 AM PT.

  • Purchase games on Steam from a list of over 40 titles on sale this weekend only. 50% of proceeds will be split amongst the 7 participating charities.
  • Keep an eye out on Twitch front page for One Gamer Fund streams, such as the new revamp of The Culling: Origins with streamers and Xaviant.
  • Share this fundraiser with your community on Twitter using #OneGamerFund
  • Follow One Gamer Fund on Twitter for updates.
