Join Our CommunityNo child should miss out on the magic of gameplay just because of the size of their family's wallet.
β Level Up Community
From open play nights to card donation drives, we've built programs that serve every member of our community.
Join us for regular free events where families and youth can come play their favorite board games and trading card games in a welcoming, supervised environment. All experience levels welcome!
Have extra Magic: The Gathering, PokΓ©mon, One Piece, or other trading cards lying around? Donate them! We carefully sort and organize donated cards to give them new life in our community.
Using donated cards, our volunteers assemble complete, playable decks that we give away FREE at our events. Every child who comes to play has the chance to leave with their very own deck.
We assemble budget-friendly booster packs from donated cards so that everyone β at every income level β can experience the thrill of cracking a pack and discovering new cards.
Those cards sitting in a binder or a box in your closet? They could be the start of a child's favorite hobby. We accept all types of trading cards in any condition.
All of our events are free to attend and open to everyone. Bring the whole family!
