Huuuge Games has raised around £400,000 in charity donations for Make-A-Wish UK. The money will be used to further support the charity group’s mission of bringing joy to seriously ill children in any way it can.
The company teamed up with Miniclip, Hutch and more for a ‘Wish 200 Week’ that took place between July 18, 2022 and July 22, 2022. Throughout Wish 200, participating streamers and games industry companies alike held fundraising events to raise money which will be used to grant wishes for 200 UK children.
“We are extremely proud that the united gaming community came together once again to help Make-A-Wish UK with their Wish 200 Week, with this donation a lot of ill children and their families will see their gaming dreams come to life,” said Huuuge Games co-CEO Rod Cousens. “Gaming is a big part of young people’s lives and we know how it can be a great escape from the troubles of real life. We are especially glad that 200 children in need will have their gaming wishes granted with our help.”
This is the second ‘Wish Week’ event, following a similar one last year called ‘Wish 100 Week’ that raised £200,000 for 100 unwell children. Hopefully we’ll see a ‘Wish 400 Week’ next year that can provide even more help for the children that need it.
