As you are hopefully well aware, this year's Child’s Play has been up and running for two weeks now. Last year they (or should I say gamers) managed to raise around $260,000 which was indeed a lot. However, they're off to an amazing start this year, with contributions in the first two weeks just shy of $200k already ($198k to be exact). At this rate they will definitely be hitting the $750k goal!

The Child’s Play Charity Dinner Auction is also taking place, on December 11th 2007 - 6:30 PM in Seattle, WA. at the Washington State Convention Center. Penny Arcade is hosting a swanky fundraising dinner event for Child's Play and you're all invited! Individual tickets and corporate tables for the annual Charity Dinner Auction are on sale here (and you can find out lots more about the dinner).
