Welcome to Gamers Giving Back!

Fund-Raising
Gamers Giving Back was created to provide a way for gamers to give back to the global community through online gaming. Typically, gamers spend money on not only the games they play, but on subscription fees as well. However, if just a portion of that money went towards a charity, there would no doubt be a huge impact. Back in 2007, we started to work towards that idea by hosting annual fund-raising events for different charities within a variety of video games we all play and love, such as "Pink Day in LA" to support breast cancer awareness, and the "Toga Party for M.S." to support the Multiple Sclerosis Society, as well as a few other smaller events.

Development
We are not solely fixated on the causes that are important to those involved in volunteering with us. We also want to give others a place to share what is important to them. Therefore, we invite anyone who wishes to talk about a certain charity or subject to do so. We are always trying to find new ways to fundraise and spread awareness, and also ways to support others with their own projects. It's not about "us" as a group, it's about "everyone" and "anyone" who wishes to get involved. This is about developing as a community at every given opportunity, and doing more than any one person can do alone. Together, we can help make a difference, one gamer at a time!

Awareness
To us, awareness is just as important as fund-raising. By using platforms such as video games and social media sites to share information and spread the word, we can appeal to a larger community. We seek to highlight issues that people may not be so familiar with to provide avenues that foster wider understanding, learning opportunities, and ultimately enacting change that makes a difference. We understand that not everyone is able to donate money, but your time and energy can be just as valuable of a contribution.

GW-EN Radio + GGB
The Gaming World Entertainment Network radio stream is another great way to inform listeners of upcoming events in a fun and entertaining environment! The synergy between both Gamers Giving Back and GW-EN allows more information about charity events to reach more people in a number of ways. From listening to the GW-EN radio stream, to reading the GGB twitter or facebook page, or visiting either website, you'll be sure to have the most up-to-date information on events such as Extra Life, the MS Walk, and many more!
