For the past five years, gamers and geeks around the world have raised over 3.5 million dollars in toys, games and cash for sick kids in Children’s Hospitals across the globe through a grassroots charity called Child’s Play.

This year, we have continued expanding across the country and the globe. With around 60 partner hospitals and more arriving every month, you can be sure to find one from the map above that needs your help! You can choose to purchase requested items from their online retailer wish lists, or make a cash donation that helps out Child’s Play hospitals everywhere. Any items purchased through Amazon will be shipped directly to your hospital of choice, so please be sure to select their shipping address rather than your own. When gamers give back, it makes a difference! [via Child's Play]

Extreme Tech “This Christmas they decided to do something about it — something that might give the news media something positive to write about gamers for once. The two geek humorists live near Seattle, so they hooked up with the Seattle Children’s Hospital and Regional Medical Center to arrange a sort of donation charity thing.”
