is a federally recognized 501(c)(3) hobby gaming foundation, supporting gamers facing catastrophic events and bringing games and joy to communities across Colorado. Located in Denver, we are a hobby gaming charity serving gamers in our beautiful and colorful state of Colorado.

​Focusing on individuals who are experiencing catastrophic events, we also support our local communities in bringing games and friendly faces to the lives of everyone we encounter.

Who We Support

1. Colorado-Based Gamers

The people we support must live in Colorado. In some cases, we may consider nearby areas like parts of Wyoming if they fall within the broader Denver Metro region, but our focus remains on Colorado.

2. Catastrophic Life Events

We focus on supporting those who have/are experiencing major, life-altering events—such as cancer, house fires, severe illness, or major surgery. While many face difficult times, our fundraising is reserved for the most critical, transformative needs.

3. Board Review & Approval

Every potential cause is reviewed and voted on by our board of directors. Our decisions are based on the nature of the need and whether it aligns with our mission—not on popularity or personal connections within the community.

4. Members of the Gaming Community

The people we support must be gamers—whether they enjoy RPGs, board games, card games, or part of the broader gaming world we serve (casino/gambling excluded).

How We Hear About Those in Need

We learn about people in need through a variety of ways: they may reach out directly, be referred by local game store owners, or be brought to our attention by others in the community. In the past, organizations like the Make-A-Wish Foundation have referred someone to us. There’s no single path—just let us know if someone needs help.

Other Ways We Give Back

Beyond our fundraising efforts, we also support our community through donations of games and gaming resources. We’ve partnered with schools, community centers, and libraries to bring joy, connection, and learning to people across Colorado. We also use our general fund to help in smaller—but still meaningful—ways. This includes purchasing items like walkers, wheelchairs, iPad stands for those who are bedbound, etc. (We even bought a refrigerator for an immunocompromised family during the pandemic.) These aren’t full campaigns, but they’re just as central to our mission.

---

Transparency Is Key

We believe in full transparency. If you ever want to know where your donation is going or why—we’ll always give you a clear and honest answer. If you have questions or want to learn more, feel free to reach out to any of our board members.

This process may evolve in the future. Thank you for helping us support our gaming community through hardship, recovery, and joy.

In the background of everything, we have been working on updating the website. Small quality-of-life updates, while not major, are making a big impact on our lives. One of the biggest changes we've made recently has been to our Memorial page (https://gamersgiving.org/in-memorial), which is a page honoring the players, creators, and advocates who helped shape our tabletop gaming community.

This page is NOT complete, as it will always be growing, but we need your help. On the page, you will be able to check out some stories and memories from folks in our community and even submit your own memories! You can also submit names of family, friends, and anyone else who you believe should be up on the wall!

Gamers Giving Inc. dedicates this page to those in our community who have passed away since our inception. All these individuals were strong advocates not only for Gamers Giving but also for hobby gaming and for creating a safe, inclusive space. May their stories live on at our tables. All will be missed.

Giving 4th is a movement to establish July 4 as a new national day of charitable giving.

Giving back to our neighbors and communities has been part of America since its founding. But charitable giving has long been concentrated in the last weeks of December, leaving nonprofits under-resourced for most of the year. This July 4th, we’re changing that.

America’s 250th anniversary gives us a once-in-a-generation opportunity to build something lasting. Our goal: make July 4th a permanent fixture on the American giving calendar — a tradition that starts this milestone year, and grows stronger every July 4th that follows.
