Are you tired of running 5K?
I’m all for supporting charitable causes, but enough with the running. How much do I have to donate to NOT run? Because that is money well spent.
And people who knock on my door raising funds for a running event team leave me in a quandary. I want to donate to their cause, but I don’t want to be the one responsible for them running themselves to death.
Judge: Mr. Procter did you give $20 to Mr. Smith to run 2 miles in the Children’s Hospital Marathon?
ME: Yes, your honor.
Judge: Well he died 1.5 miles into your donation and now you owe his family $2,000,000.
ME: Running is the devil.
Thankfully, a couple of geniuses have devised a charity event that involves ZERO running and the only physical sacrifice is sleep deprivation.
Did I mention it involves video games?
Say what? You heard me the first time.
That’s right, the brilliant minds over at Charity Gaming have created a fundraising phenomenon that combines America’s new favorite pastime with benefiting children’s hospitals and disaster relief programs.
Charity Gaming’s mission is to give children a chance to feel like a kid again and not just a patient by providing games, books and toys to bring a smile to their little faces.
This year their May 31 event theme is “Old School Games” featuring a 12-hour marathon of games like Donkey Kong Country, Turtles in Time, Mario Kart, Goldeneye and more.
If you want to participate in this event, win some cool prizes, and help out hospitalized kids (like Russell Wilson does every Tuesday) checkout their Facebook Page, Twitter and website.

GAME ON!!
It’s for a good cause. 🙂
