We were thrilled to hear that Help Hope Live would once again be one of three charity beneficiaries in the Greater Philadelphia area for the annual in-person bring-your-own-computer gaming event RGB LAN.
The event raised over $11,000 for charity!
For three days, gamers came together to compete and play for a cause. Each attendee got to choose a color team that matched their charity of choice and earn points towards that charity’s final total from RGB LAN. Green Team pride!!
The RGB LAN team invited us to visit the LAN party event in-person to meet attendees and share how Help Hope Live’s mission impacts lives.
One big boost to this year’s charity total: a generous matching donation from an individual in each of the three charities’ support communities.
The matching donor for Green Team pledged $1,000 and challenged RGB LAN gamers to match it during the event. They reached and exceeded that goal!
We are so grateful to the Help Hope Live donor who made this extra incentive possible!
Vanessa Nichols, Philadelphia Outreach Coordinator at Help Hope Live, stopped by to engage the hard-working Green Team and the rest of the RGB LAN 6 event attendees.
One attendee commented that they were so inspired by Help Hope Live’s mission and Vanessa’s energy that they plan to join our Green Team at RGB LAN in the future.
Thank you to the RGB LAN community for raising funds and hope!
