BGaming has launched its latest charitable initiative, pledging €10,000 to support Portuguese youth education charity The European Intercultural Club (CLUBE).
CLUBE is a Lisbon-based non-profit organisation supporting youth education, training and employability. The charity has used the donation from BGaming for club premises repairs and organisational needs, as well as to help finance a project supporting children’s skill development.
Marina Ostrovtsova, CEO at BGaming, said: “Creativity is a proven way to support young children’s development, and we take joy in donating to valuable causes that champion this. Just as BGaming is dedicated to producing the most creative games on the market, we are committed to building strong communities through art.
“The children at The European Intercultural Club are sure to benefit from their time taking part in this semester-long project and we can’t wait to hear about the results.”
The organisation’s ‘Urban Nature Project – A Macro Story’ campaign will hope to help students integrate with the urban environment where they live. Children taking part in the campaign will take part in observatory nature walks before taking advice from local cinematic artist Gonçalo Almeida.
Almeida will educate participants on the fundamentals of cinema, including narrative, filming and editing techniques with an aim to promote environmental awareness and develop creative skills.
Ana Quintela, General Coordinator at The European Intercultural Club, added: “We’re happy that BGaming reached out to us, enabling the local school to implement a cinema workshop project.
“This donation came at the perfect time, allowing us to support an educational initiative that aligns with our community’s needs.”
BGaming’s €10,000 donation marks the slot developer’s latest charitable initiative, having recently donated the same amount to a Polish chess school earlier this year.
