Game Knights, Inc. is the brainchild of New York City teenager Kyle Lutnick. Kyle was injured at camp and spent a week at an upstate New York hospital. While in the hospital, Kyle discovered that there were no diversions for the children. Kyle’s parents brought his video game console and games from home so Kyle could be entertained while in the hospital. He left them there for other children to use so that they could play after he left the hospital. The creation of Game Knights is the continuation of Kyle’s idea of donating games to distract kids during their long convalescence. When children leave they keep the games.
Game Knights collects new and used devices in excellent condition. Game Knights also encourages financial donations and uses these funds to purchase new devices. Game Knights focuses our distribution efforts on those hospitals and institutions which have not traditionally had funding to provide such devices and cater mostly to children and families in underprivileged communities that cannot afford to provide the electronics on their own.
Some of the institutions we have visited recently are:
Game Knights, Inc. is a not-for profit organization. 100% of donated electronic devices and 100% of the funds derived from contributions will go directly towards our charitable efforts. Game Knights is a tax-exempt public charity status as described in section 501(c)(3) of the U.S. Internal Revenue code. Donation of goods and funds are tax-deductable.
