DALLAS - May 22, 2024 - PRLog -- Gold Star Gamers Launches Memorial Day Fundraiser to Aid Children of Fallen Soldiers

DALLAS, May 7 – Gold Star Gamers, a non-profit organization, is initiating a Memorial Day Campaign to raise vital funds to assist children who have lost a parent in military service. With over 100,000 children affected since 9/11, the toll on military families is profound. These young individuals face increased risks of PTSD, suicidal thoughts, disengagement from school, and diminished self-worth. Recognizing that 85% of military kids are gamers, many having bonded with their parent through gaming during separations, Gold Star Gamers steps in to support these resilient children.

"In commemoration of Memorial Day weekend, our goal is to raise an additional one hundred thousand dollars to serve 1,000 kids in 2024," stated Martha Laughman, Co-Founder of Gold Star Gamers. "Donations will be allocated to expand outreach efforts, fulfill technology wishes, and organize in-person events for children to forge connections and thrive together through gaming."

Established in 2021, Gold Star Gamers has already impacted the lives of 1000 children. This Memorial Day, they are collaborating with various content creators and streamers to dedicate their platforms to the cause and amplify awareness through social media.
