Our main priority is helping fellow gamers overcome catastrophic hardships (medical, financial, natural disaster). If approved, our benefactors receive a customized support package to meet their needs. We do all of the work (fundraising, awareness, events) so you can focus on recovery and well-being. Anonymity (public) is also available, if requested.

Requirements:

• Those who seek assistance must apply directly (no intermediaries – unless the benefactor is under 18 years of age or physically incapable of requesting assistance due to medical conditions).
• Proof of hardship will be required.
• All funds provided will be delivered through AERIE Fund (no exceptions).
• Applicants must be an active (or invested) member of a gaming community.

We’re happy to participate in cause-centered community projects that benefit those in need or the community in whole. 

These projects include (but are not limited to):

• coordinating community-wide projects that center around an issue we support, promote inclusiveness, and/or positive social impact.
• participating in awareness campaigns/fundraising for other 501c3 non-profit organizations we support.
• working with developers and gaming communities to build fun, inclusive, and cause-centered gaming experiences.
• building a support structure in a gaming community so players know, support, and have access to AERIE Fund resources.
