Play Flash games for charity at Gaming for Charity.org

If you have time to kill online, and want to help worthy causes, then bookmark Gaming For Charity.org. Gaming For Charity.org is a new site filled with flash games whose sole purpose is to donate money to the National Breast Cancer Foundation, International AIDS Vaccine Initiative and United Nations World Food Programme. Michelle Koumarianos created and opened the site in April, 2008, with assistance from graphic designer Mel Smith.

The donation money comes from ads on the site, as explained on the About page. If you visit one of the games and play, it is noted and the sponsors pay. That money is then given to the three charities. Since the site has only just opened, there haven’t been any substantial donations made. Hopefully in a few months the Total Contributions page will display plenty of donations.

There’s a huge game library, so I’m sure everyone will be able to find something to play. If you click the “all games” tab, you’ll find 80 pages filled with 2,379 flash games. If you want to get more specific, the games are also sorted into eight different categories. I recommend Balls and Lines and Zoo Keeper.

If you want to help, there are three ways to make a difference. You can visit the site and play some games, buy something from the Gaming For Charity shop, donate to the site through Paypal or directly donate to one of the charities Gaming 4 Charity supports.

    You can play games and search the internet on Microsoft’s Club Live (http://club.live.com/) to earn points. Points can then be converted to cash and donated to charities or schools. Over 1 million charities are listed.

    Wow! Club Live really sounds amazing. Thanks for letting us know about it Sarah! I’ll have to stop by and make an account there.

    Hi Bob,

    I’m not sure if you are being redirected to a bad link, but the site is still live. I just clicked the link in the original comment and it works.
