Play with Purpose
We believe play is a powerful, positive force in the world. Our mission is to make the world a more playful place.
The money we raise at Spiel-a-thons supports our game bundle program and much more!
Our game bundle program delivers quality games to hospitals, senior centers, boys and girls clubs, women’s and homeless shelters, schools, libraries, and eventually even prisons.
The Foundation also runs a media network focused on games, oversees two game award programs, AND we will be opening our own facility, the Dekoven Center for Play in Indianapolis!
