What Can IGIPRP Do?

The International Gaming Industry Poverty Relief Project — or IGIPRP, to use our rather unmelodic acronym — was founded by a group of people who have been working in the online gaming industry since 1995.

Involved with local and international charities as individuals, the group looked at the rapidly-increasing revenues of the gaming industry and wondered: What if a percentage of that profit was diverted into charitable projects? How much of a difference could that make in the world?

With so many people suffering and so much potential help available, the group decided it was worth a try.

IGIPRP is made up of industry insiders and others familiar with the online gaming world. We believe a responsible gaming industry can be a steady and deep source of charitable funding.

Our goal is to encourage industry participants — companies, executives, and individual gamers alike — to join with us to help eradicate global poverty.
