Barnardos Australia at the Business of Esports & Gaming summit

At Barnardos our vision is to empower every child in Australia to reach their full potential. One of the ways we aim to achieve this is through our newly launched fundraising initiative called the Barnardos League of Champions.

With this, we are collaborating with online streamers and content creators across Australia, challenging and rewarding them to champion a cause which is close to everybody’s hearts, whilst raising vital funds for Barnardos at the same time!

We’re delighted to announce that we have been selected as the official charity partner at a national event called the Business of Esports and Gaming Summit in Melbourne on April 26 – 27.

This is an amazing opportunity for Barnardos to be able to raise awareness around the League of Champions and what this will enable us to do in the future.

In addition to being the official charity partner, some staff from Barnardos will be speaking at the event, talking about how eSports are borderless, and that gaming is for all abilities and all communities. Other companies who will be speaking at the event include the NBL, Activision Blizzard, Monster Energy and many more.

As the official charity partner, we have a discount code which provides a $300 discount on the ‘Regular Bird’ ticket price. The code to use here is DAN300

WHAT WE SEE

We see beyond the sleepover in cars and understand the underlying issues.

After escaping family violence, a parent and their child have nowhere safe to stay and are
currently waiting for refuge accommodation.
