Get Well Gamers

I just met the President of this company a couple of days ago. This charity donates old and used, sometimes new, consoles, games, accessories, wires, etc to Hospitals in 9 states and growing. Kids and people that are always sick sometimes have to stay in the hospital for very long periods of time. At times, they have to sit there for hours and do nothing, which we all know can be mentally draining. Video games have been proven to make the patients forget about their pain while playing. All I ask is that you check out this site. See if you can help.
Thanks.

Awesome!

We have something like that over here as well.
Starlight Kids Foundation or whatever.
Best thing about it is that that Nintendo is the main sponsor, so all the video games are NIntendo!
I dunno if it's still Nintendo, cause really, Nintendo Australia have slacked off in ways unimaginable

Ew for helping sick people.

I remember back when I was a wee lad, my dad, who is a doctor, met this Russian kid or something at his hospital. The kid didn't have anything to do, so my dad asked me to come in and teach him to play video games. That was fun. The hospital only had  a Sega Genesis, but old school Sonic is so much fun. It took the kid a while, but he eventually picked up on how to play.

An excellent idea, imo...Videogaming: the cure for boredom, the most deadly disease in the world!
