Playmob

Playmob is a single platform that makes fundraising simple for game developers and brands, whilst raising awareness for their chosen charity. Once a game studio or business has been paired with their ideal charity partnership, they can set up a campaign through Playmob, and gamers can begin donating within hours, through social good links.

Campaigns to date are diverse, including helping over 3,000 teenagers get counselling for cyberbullying (saving at least one child’s life), delivering safe drinking water to 1,500 people, protecting 31 pandas, offsetting 130 tones of CO₂, delivering thousands of meals to homeless people in the USA and in Africa, and providing education to 8,500 children in Africa and Asia, enabling girls to learn to code.

Created by Jude Ower, recently awarded an MBE for her work in this sector, Playmob have partnered with Richard Curtis, The Royal Foundation and the Jamie Oliver Foundation, as well as Google Play, Amazon and Playstation to raise awareness for this simple fundraising platform, and the charities and businesses involved.
