Gaming Companies Donate to Korean Children's Homes in May
Video game companies Smilegate and NX3GAMES are celebrating Family Month by donating to children's care facilities in South Korea and hosting employee volunteer events. The gaming industry is increasingly using its success to support vulnerable kids.
Two South Korean gaming companies are turning their May celebrations into meaningful support for children in need.
Smilegate and NX3GAMES, the publisher and developer behind the game LORDNINE, announced they're donating to a children's care facility in Gyeonggi-do province this month. The donation comes as part of Family Month celebrations in May, which includes Children's Day in South Korea.
But the companies aren't just writing a check. Employees from both organizations will visit the facility on May 7th to personally deliver the donation and spend the day with the kids at a sports day event.
The giving doesn't stop there. From May 30 through June 4, Smilegate is hosting a crowdfunding campaign on HEEMANGSTUDIO, its charity platform. Every dollar raised will go directly to child care facilities supporting vulnerable children.
The Ripple Effect
This collaboration shows how the gaming industry is maturing beyond entertainment into social responsibility. When successful companies invite their employees to participate in hands-on charity work, it creates a culture of giving that extends far beyond corporate donations.
The sports day event is particularly meaningful. Many children in care facilities have limited opportunities for special activities or one-on-one attention from adults. A full day of games, activities, and personal interaction can create lasting positive memories.
Yong Myeong-un, Content Director at NX3GAMES, emphasized this isn't a one-time gesture. Both companies have a track record of consistent charitable giving, and they're committed to expanding their joint philanthropic work in the future.
The crowdfunding approach also engages the gaming community directly. By opening the campaign to public participation through HEEMANGSTUDIO, the companies are inviting players and fans to be part of the solution.
South Korea celebrates Family Month every May to honor family relationships and support children's wellbeing. These donations help ensure that children without traditional family structures still feel the love and support this season represents.
