GameStop Announces Partnership with the Make-A-Wish Foundation
GameStop, the world's largest video game and entertainment software retailer, is encouraging customers to share the power of a wish(R) in support of the Make-A-Wish Foundation this holiday season.
As part of a two-pronged initiative, GameStop has donated 200 shopping spree wishes for wish kids across the country. Also, beginning nationwide today, GameStop customers can visit www.gamestop.com/makeawish to make their donations to benefit the Make-A-Wish Foundation while browsing or shopping online this holiday season. The program runs through the end of 2007, and donation amounts are available from $5 to $100.
"GameStop is honored to partner with the Make-A-Wish Foundation as it underscores how powerful a wish experience can be for a child with a life-threatening medical condition," said Dick Fontaine, chief executive officer and chairman of GameStop Corp.
"The Make-A-Wish Foundation granted 13,000 wishes last year, and more than 1,000 of them involved computers, electronics or game systems," said David Williams, Make-A-Wish Foundation of America president and chief executive officer. "This wonderful partnership with GameStop will bring even more joy to the courageous children we serve."
