FWrestling Gives Back: Child's Play Charity

Your normally slightly boring front page at FWrestling has been taken over for a good cause!

Child's Play is a charity created by the webcomic gurus at Penny Arcade in 2003 that supports children's hospitals worldwide. Last year, this online gamer created charity raised $1.4 million.

Child's Play works directly with over 60 children's hospitals around the world, creating wishlists of video games, toys and movies. The gifts sent directly to the hospitals are used to help children in treatment while they're sick, away from home and often bored. In many cases, children must remain in isolation as part of their treatment. Even when they don't, very often there aren't enough toys in the hospital playrooms for all the patients.

Starting this year, I decided to try a little experiment. For years, the broader Fantasy Wrestling/e-wrestling community has talked about where to coalesce and put its energy -- usually focused on events, titles, debate, etc. This year, I thought we should put our money (literally) where our mouth is and support children in need. The CSWA was created when a 12- and 13-year old got bored over spring break one year. Rather than watching another set of reruns, we decided to create our own game based around wrestling. I can't imagine if that boredom had been compounded by chemo treatments, constant tests and being away from my home.

In the days ahead, I'll be posting more about Child's Play, including a story from one our own about how his family was directly impacted by one of the hospital supported by the charity.

On the front page of FWrestling.com you'll find a Chipin widget that directs you to Paypal where you can make a donation. At the end of the drive on December 25, I'll be submitting those donations directly to Child's Play in the name of our community (communities?). I'll post updates on the forum, as well as information and proof of the final donation so you can see the final tally.

If you have any concerns using Paypal, please let me know, or simply go to the Child's Play website where you can make a direct donation or select specific gifts through hospital wishlists on Amazon. We won't be able to track your gift specifically as part of the FWrestling donation, but that doesn't matter as much as making the donatino itself.

If anyone has ideas on how to add to this drive, please let me know. I'm certainly willing to promise to get a certain CSWA card done by a certain date if that spurs anyone to donate. I'm sure we can all come up with some ideas to encourage folks to get involved.

I know this is a long message -- but despite my general lack of time these days, I've enjoyed being a part of this community for so many years and being able to provide a site and place for you to connect. If you ever wanted to help "pay me back" for the costs in hosting, software, etc., simply say "thank you" by making a donation to this important cause.

Thanks all.

-Chad
