#9 Child's Play
Child's Play delivers toys and video games to hospital-bound children. Jerry Holkins and Mike Krahulik, author and illustrator of acclaimed webcomic "Penny Arcade" founded this organization.
Child’s Play works in two ways. With the help of hospital staff, it sets up gift wish lists full of video games, toys, books, and other fun stuff for kids. By clicking on a hospital location on your map, you can view that hospital’s wish list and send a gift. Child’s Play also receives cash donations throughout the year. With those cash donations, it purchases new consoles, peripherals, games, and more for hospitals and therapy facilities. These donations allow for children to enjoy age-appropriate entertainment, interact with their peers, friends, and family, and can provide vital distraction from an otherwise generally unpleasant experience.
