Wisconsin Games Alliance and Starlight Children's Foundation believe in the power of play. That’s why we’re teaming up to raise funds for a Starlight Gaming Handheld, a special portable gaming system designed just for hospitals.

Hospital stays can be stressful, scary, and lonely for kids. A Starlight Gaming Handheld, powered by Nintendo® and preloaded with 25 fun, family-friendly games, helps bring comfort, distraction, and joy to a child’s bedside. It’s safe for hospital use, easy to clean, and can roll into treatment rooms, playrooms, or even the ER.

We’re launching this fundraiser at MDEV because what better place to harness the power of our gaming community than here in Wisconsin? Every dollar raised will go directly toward placing a Starlight Gaming Handheld at a local Wisconsin hospital, ensuring kids facing tough treatments can still laugh, play, and feel like kids again.

Together, we can deliver happiness and healing through gaming, because when you play, kids win.
