Game Charity Drive in the OC

By pete_gallagher

Over 70 UPS Store locations in Orange County, California will be accepting videogame donations throughout the month of May in order to benefit the charity Donate Games.

'Spring Cleaning for a Cause' seeks out used games, consoles and peripherals that will serve to assist Donate Games in its support of children fighting rare and orphan diseases. The charity sells the used items through its online store in order to fund its initiative.

An additional part of the drive has the Make-A-Wish Foundation teamed up with area high schools and universities for a similar used game drive on campuses throughout the region.

Donate Games Founder and CEO Jim Carol stated, 'Donate Games is honored to have the support of The UPS Store and the Make-A-Wish Foundation as we continue our fight against time to find cures to rare orphan diseases impacting more than 20 million Americans and families around the globe.'
