A recent press release has revealed that this year’s Child’s Play Gala and Auction helped raise $351,000.
The donations from the videogame community are part of an ongoing effort by the Child’s Play Charity to provide hospitalized children with toys, games, and cash.
Some of the more noteworthy items sold at this year’s auction were the life-zied Half-Life Gravity Gun and a very rare Nintendo World Championships cartridge. The two items sold for $21,000 and $11,500 respectively.
Taking into account donations from the auction, the total contributions to the Child’s Play Charity this year have reached $1.95 million.
