Gamers Outreach x Wonder Woman
And also this is not the first time Gamers Outreach has teamed up with Xbox, as back in November of 2020, the company teamed up with Dwayne Johnson to provide twenty custom Xbox Series X consoles to hospitals. Gamers Outreach was founded in 2007 to help kids in hospitals cope with long term visits. The company provides technological activities to kids with the goal to offer a, socialization, and relief sense of normalcy.
Xbox released a statement that as part of its power of play ideology, the company is actually glad to bring joy to so many kids for the holiday season. The enjoyment and stress relieving factor of video games often goes unrecognized, so it’s great a large number of kids will be receiving age appropriate sources of enjoyment. Ideally, some other companies are going to catch wind of this and also go out of the way to help kids in need. Fans interested in obtaining a machine for their very own local hospital is able to consider getting an estimate and start a fundraising page.
