Want to get involved with the work of the Kingdom? Saving the lost and broken won’t happen on its own. Here are some ways to jump in and start serving:

- Host a gaming marathon for charity. A great example of this is the Mario Marathon.
- Play games with kids at hospitals. Gamers Outreach has plenty of ways to get involved.
- Reverse GTA: See what life is like for real reformed gangsters by visiting Homeboy Industries and getting involved with their service projects.
