We are excited to continue our work together to bring more gaming opportunities and support to these deserving children and their families."

The partnership will encompass various initiatives, including joint fundraising efforts, educational programs, training camps,  and Valhallan-branded gaming events exclusively catering to military children supported by Gold Star Gamers. These efforts will provide access to cutting-edge gaming technology, mentorship opportunities and a supportive community that understands their unique needs.
