GamesIndustry.Biz’s Jeffrey Rousseau highlights the new “Stronger Together In Games” fundraiser, created by the IGDA, IGDA Foundation, Women in Games International, Global Game Jam, Take This, and Game to Grow. The campaign aims to support the many games industry professionals affected by widespread layoffs with mental health resources and career-advancing tools.

“The past year has been a challenging time for the games industry. As non-profit organizations that support game creators and players worldwide, we’re seeing skyrocketing demand for our programs and services” said Dr. Jakin Vela, Executive Director of IGDA. “The funds we raise will support our continued efforts in creating and sharing resources, facilitating networking opportunities and mentorship, and coordinating impactful programming aimed to diversify the industry, and more.”
