Charity

Snacks, swaps and sustainability

This October was our very first Green Team event!

Held in the lounge of our Mitte office, our Second Hand Swap Party offered team members a chance to bring in their pre-loved items of clothing and home items, to see if they could find a new lease of life with a different team member. We also encouraged parents to bring in items that their children may no longer use or have grown out of, in order for other parents to benefit.

🌊 “WeMakeWaves”: Empowering Homeless Youth in Berlin 🏄

Together, we can make a difference! 🌊🤝

Our recent donation supports the impactful work of “WeMakeWaves”, a sports-based program for children and teenagers aged 10-16 who reside in homeless shelters in Berlin. With 80-90% of participants having a migrant background and refugee experiences, the project aims to create positive waves in their lives.

Donation Doubler, Make-a-Wish, and an intercultural playing card project

GameDuell believes that social responsibility begins with each of us. To live up to this claim and to lead by example, we donate to numerous charitable organizations and associations every year.

Donation to LegaKids

Part of the GameDuell mission is providing a fun, enjoyable experience to all, and as such, we consider charitable action to be part of our broader mission.

With that in mind, we are excited to contribute once more to the wonderful cause of LegaKids.

Launched in 2004, LegaKids is a free online project which offers a wide range of educational games, videos, and apps to help kids and teens with LRS (reading and spelling difficulties), dyslexia, reading weaknesses, and arithmetic difficulties, and at the same time offers up-to-date information and news for parents, teachers, and therapists.

Donation to Senioren Computer Club Mitte e.V.

We are happy to enable digital participation for elderly people and increase their competencies and enthusiasm for technology. That’s why we repeatedly support the Senioren Computer Club Berlin (SCC Berlin Mitte) with our donation. Our proceeds help to fund new equipment for the club.

Donation to wirmachenwelle e.V.

We are happy that after 2019, we are able to once more support wirmachenwelle e.V. with a donation!

wirmachenwelle (“We make waves”) e.V. brings young people from Germany's cities onto the surfboard and into nature.

Donation to support Save the Children in aid of Ukraine

We have been deeply moved by the current events in Ukraine. Now, we want to do something in aid of peace and the people struggling during these difficult times. We see a great solidarity with people in Ukraine, who are suffering greatly, and with the people in Russia and Belarus who are courageously protesting against the war.

To help humanitarian workers working in Ukraine and the countries where refugees are fleeing, we have decided to immediately donate 10,000 EUR to the aid organization "Save the Children".

Looking back on our donations in 2021

We can all look back on an eventful and also challenging year. The Corona pandemic affected many areas of our lives and made daily life, social networks, and being recognized harder for many people, communities, and organizations. That’s why we had again been looking for fantastic charity organizations that we can support that year. Here are the ones that we donated to at the end of last year.
