Our Work
How we accomplish our mission is through six programs that work in tandem with each other in what we can our Program Ecosystem.
Our Program Ecosystem provides a community of support to children as they grow. Focusing on an encompassed approach to help children for life through many interactions and programs that grow with them as they are ready to take on new chapters and phases in their lives. Our six programs work in tandem with each other to effectively bring solutions from a foundational level at a global scale.
Games For Love’s Program Impact
“We designed our programs from active fieldwork working with children, and the facilities that treat them from the ground up. We desired to become more than a bandage, we wanted to be there for life.
We are creating holistically, and our programs are not looking at just the symptoms of global problems, but assisting in the elimination of root causes from a foundational level.”
– Nathan Blair, Founder of Games For Love
