London, United Kingdom – 14 July 2021 – War Child UK is holding another great Sporting Champions fundraiser to help support children and young people whose lives have been affected by war. The Sporting Champions campaign provides the opportunity for gamers to make an impact by purchasing sports themed video games via a Steam sale - proceeds from which will help fund the charity's work in protecting, educating and standing up for the rights of children caught up in conflict. Sporting Champions takes place today, 14 July.
By supporting the Sporting Champions campaign you can make a difference and help to ensure that these children have the chance for a better future. Sporting Champions will hold several discounts on sport titles on Steam, and also livestreams from several Twitch streamers. Further detail about the livestreams can be found on the Sporting Champions Tiltify page.
“Following on from last year’s successful Sporting Champions fundraiser, this year’s event includes a new list of games that gamers can try out at a discount as well as help raise funds to aid the young lives of many.” said David Miller, Head of Gaming Partnerships, War Child UK. “Sport is something that brings many people together and is considered to be a universal language, which makes the Sporting Champions campaign and its games on offer apt for bringing gamers together to support via the Steam sale and charity streams.”

ABOUT WAR CHILD UK
War Child UK is the only specialist charity for children affected by conflict. For more than two decades we’ve been driven by a single goal – for no child’s life to be torn apart by war. We aim to reach children as early as possible when conflict breaks out and stay to support them through their recovery – keeping them safe, helping them learn and cope with their experiences, and equipping them with skills for the future.
We understand children’s needs, respect their rights, and put them at the centre of the solution and campaign for changes to policies and practices to support children in conflict, working with children and young people themselves to demand their rights.
Together with our partners we deliver our vital, life-saving work in 15 countries across Africa, Asia and the Middle East, and Latin America.
