The Spiel Foundation

The Spiel Foundation is a 501(c)3 non-profit organization based in Indianapolis, Indiana.

We believe play is a powerful and positive force in the world.

The goal of The Spiel Foundation is to make the world a more playful place.

One critical way we do this is by donating bundles of quality board and card games to organizations across the world that can help bring fun to people.

Our bundles go to children’s hospitals and senior citizen’s centers, women’s and homeless shelters, boys and girls clubs, libraries and schools, even prisons.

The money we raise at Spielathons allows us to purchase and prep bundles of five games and donate these bundles to organizations that fit our mandate.

Each year, we assemble bundles of five games and donate these bundles to organizations that fit our mandate. To date, we have donated over 2,000 board and card games to kids and seniors around the country. Pictured below are 107 5-game bundles ready delivered in April 2019!

The group is funded by donations from individuals and game publishers from around the world.

The Foundation sponsors a fundraiser, the Spiel-a-thon, at different game conventions across the country
