Although it's truly a year-round charity, as with most philanthropy the biggest surge in Child's Play giving is around the holidays. The 2008 campaign is now underway to help as many kids as possible through toys, books and cash distributed to more than 45 children's hospitals around the world.

This is our #1 charity - even though we live in Seattle, I donate to the Children's Hospital in Washington, D.C., which helped me when I was little, and GrrlGotGame gives to the one in Dallas. We hope you can join us, even if it's just a small toy or book...
