SUMMARY:June @ Knight Watch Games: Texas Burn Survivor Society
DESCRIPTION:Some disturbing but important facts: \n– Burns are the leading cause of injury to San Antonio children under age 16. \n– The number of burn injuries has grown over 50% in the past five years. \n– Fire injuries constitute the fifth largest cause of injury-related hospitalizations reported among Texas residents. \nHow can you help? \nJune’s partner organization is the Texas Burn Survivor Society. TBSS founder David Jayne was critically burned in a helicopter accident and spent three years enduring treatment and rehab at Brooke Army Medical Center’s Burn Unit. David and his wife Jane were determined to provide the kind of support for others they themselves had so sorely needed\, and in 1962 TBSS was born. \nWe will be stuffing backpacks for Camp David\, a week-long camp for pediatric burn survivors\, their siblings\, and also the children of adult burn survivors. Campers experience a week of adventure\, discovery and fun\, designed specifically for children ages 7 to 16. Camp David is unique among burn camps because it also includes siblings and children of burn survivors\, whose lives are also severely impacted by burn injury. This amazing camp is made available to the children free of charge! \nCamp David\, named in honor of TBSS co-founded David Jayne\, is in its 22nd year and will take place July 9-15 at Texas Lions Camp in Kerrville\, where it has been since 2007. On average\, the camp hosts 55 campers each year. This year\, they will host at least 65 campers. The camp is financed by private donations and is free of charge for all campers. \nBackpack Items\nBeach Towels/Large Bath Towels\nSchool Supplies\nSnack Items (granola bars\, sugar free mints/gum\, etc.)\nBeanie Babies or Similar Small Stuffed Animals\nSmall Puzzle Toys\nSmall Journals or Notepads\nDecals and Stickers\nFriendship Bracelets

SUMMARY:Pre-PAX Game Night!
DESCRIPTION:Join San Antonio Nerd Night as we get ready for a weekend of all things gaming at PAX SOUTH! \nWe’ve got you covered the night before PAX with a board game blowout next door to the convention center.

Camp is a week of fun adventure and discovery\, where the children learn self-esteem and coping skills that will allow them to re-enter and function happily in society.** \nWe are planning other activities including a silent auction! So come play with us\, and Game for Good to warm up for PAX! \nImportant: Per hotel rules\, no outside food is allowed. There are several food and beverage options inside the hotel\, though!

The door should be unlocked until 8pm so you can come right in and go up to the 7th floor. We will be in the community space there – should be obvious when you enter. If you arrive after 8pm and the door is locked\, there will be a sign up with a number to text for entry. \nFree parking area is in the southern Frost Employee ground level parking at Houston & Flores just a couple of blocks from Geekdom. Paid parking options and street parking are plentiful\, as well.

SUMMARY:August Nerd Night @ Knight Watch Games
DESCRIPTION:The Rape Crisis Center is a 501(c)(3) organization that exists to support all survivors of sexual assault and ensure victims have a responsive medical community\, sensitive law enforcement officials\, and an active prosecution system. For 40 years\, the Rape Crisis Center has been a resource for our community. We are supporting their work at both of our August events. \nPer TxDPS 2014 Crime Data\, someone was raped every 46 minutes in Texas that year.

It offers client-centered services that seek to empower and promote the safety of survivors\, without judgment. \nHow can we help?\nThe Rape Crisis Center is in need of many items to do their important work. These items help in their daily work and also with their youth and therapy groups. We will be collecting the following at both August Nerd Nights. \n• Black binder clips (medium & large)\n• Black lanyards\n• Bottled water\n• Clip boards\n• Colored copy paper\n• Construction paper\n• Disinfecting wipes (e.g. Clorox\, Lysol wipes)\n• DYMO Letratag refills\n• Flip chart markers\n• Hand sanitizer\n• Highlighters (all colors)\n• Kleenex\n• Large plastic storage bins\n• Mechanical pencils\n• Pens\n• Pocket folders\n• Post-Its\n• Spiral notebooks\n• USB flash drives\n• Washable markers\n• White cardstock\n• Canvases (any size)\n• Clay Markers (e.g. Sharpies)\n• Water color paint\n• Gift cards – H-E-B\, Walmart\, Target\, CVS Pharmacy\, Walgreens\, Visa\n• Candy (snack-size to give out at outreach events)

SUMMARY:May Nerd Night: Book Buddies
DESCRIPTION:San Antonio Nerd Night Benefiting Book Buddies\nMay’s partner organization is Book Buddies\, an initiative of San Antonio Youth Literacy. Book Buddies collects books suitable for kids in kindergarten through 5th grade and distributes them at the end of the school year in free book fairs at their Reading Buddy Schools. \nChildren choose books to take home to read over the summer\, which helps prevent the “summer slide” — a regression in learning over summer vacation when they are not being actively taught. Studies also show that children who grow up in homes without books\, and who are not read to as children\, are far more likely to fall behind in school\, fail to complete high school\, and suffer the unfortunate outcomes associated with failure: drug use\, criminal behavior\, early pregnancy\, etc. \nSan Antonio Youth Literacy developed Book Buddies as an offshoot of their Reading Buddy program\, which exists in San Antonio Title 1 schools where at least 75% of the families are below the poverty line. Children at these schools attend the free book fairs at the end of the school year and take the books home and keep them as their own. They can read them over the summer\, share them with family and friends\, or even their parents. In many cases these donated books are the only books in the home. An added benefit is that children in more advantaged homes learn to share their no longer needed books with another child. Everybody wins! \nMay Nerd Night is holding a book drive to collect books for this year’s fairs. Bring your new or gently used books to Geeks Café on May 13th! \nTypes of Books Needed\nPicture Books (Example: Where the Wild Things Are)\nI Can Read series\nChildren’s chapter books\nAny book appropriate up to a 6th grade level \nAmazon Shopping Suggestions

SUMMARY:February Nerd Night
DESCRIPTION:This month we will tackle the issue of homelessness in San Antonio. Our benefit charity is SAMMinistries\, whose mission is to help the homeless and those at risk of becoming homeless attain self-sufficiency by offering\, with dignity and compassion\, shelter\, housing\, and services. Since 2008\, SAMM has prevented 20\,000 San Antonians from entering homelessness. Each night\, SAMM offers 350 families a place to call home. In 2014\, 98% of the families served through SAMM’s Homeless Prevention Program remained out of homelessness after 18 months. \nFebruary Nerd Night will specifically be targeting item collection for “Welcome Baskets\,” given to each family as they enter SAMMinistries’ Transitional Housing program. These baskets give families much-needed household goods as they begin their journey to self-sufficiency. We will collect the following items at Nerd Night and deliver them to SAMM’s donation center. \nFAMILY MEALTIME\nDish Sets & Large Plastic Cups\nFlatware Sets\nPots & Pans\nCooking Tools (ex: wooden spoons)\nOven Mitts & Pot Holders \nLINENS\nSheet Sets: Twin & Full\nCrib Sheets\nComforters: Twin & Full\nTowel Sets: Bath\, Hand & Washcloths \nCLEANING SUPPLIES\nBuckets & Sponge Mops\nAll-Purpose Cleaner\nAntibacterial Wipes & Bleach\nBrooms & Dustpans\nDish Detergent\nToilet Brushes & Toilet Cleaner \nHOUSEHOLD GOODS\nGarbage Cans & Trash Bags\, 13-gallon\nLaundry Detergent\nLaundry Baskets

SUMMARY:December Nerd Night
DESCRIPTION:Our December event will benefit the San Antonio Food Bank. Bring non-perishable food items and help us fill a barrel of food to help the hungry people of San Antonio. Planned events include board game tournaments (TBA)\, Magic the Gathering\, RPG demonstrations and open gaming. Choose something from the Magic Beans game library or bring your own! \nFood drives are critical to the San Antonio Food Bank’s ongoing mission of collecting and redistributing millions of pounds of food to individuals and families in Southwest Texas who don’t know where their next meal is coming from. If you don’t want to bring food items\, we will also be accepting cash donations. Monetary donations are equally as important and are used to leverage the San Antonio Food Bank’s bulk buying power. For example\, every dollar donated provides 10 pounds of food for needy families. \nThe San Antonio Food Bank (SAFB) provides emergency food assistance to over 58\,000 people every week through a network of more than 530 partner agencies in Southwest Texas. SAFB is committed not only to providing emergency support\, but also to working to address the systemic issues that cause hunger and poverty. See below for a list of the “Twelve Most Wanted” items and pick up some extra groceries to bring to Magic Beans between December 4th – 14th. If you’d rather donate cash\, follow this link to our Virtual Food Drive. Every dollar donated provides seven meals for hungry Texans! \n12 MOST WANTED ITEMS:\nPeanut Butter\nCereal\nTuna\nBeans\nRice\nMac & Cheese\nChili\nCanned Stews\nCanned Soups\nCanned Luncheon Meats\nFull Meals (Can or Box)\nPop Top Food Items

SUMMARY:November Nerd Night
DESCRIPTION:Our inaugural November event will benefit the Elf Louise Christmas Project. Bring an unwrapped toy for a child ages 0-12 and help bring holiday joy to thousands of less fortunate children in Bexar County. We will also be accepting cash and check donations. Planned events include a Ticket to Ride tournament\, Settlers of Catan tournament\, Magic the Gathering\, RPG demonstrations and open gaming. Choose something from the Magic Beans game library or bring your own! \nEach year\, more than 4\,500 volunteer Elves come together to wrap and deliver 60\,000 toys to some of Bexar County’s most needy children. \nElf Louise recipients receive gifts that may not have great monetary value\, but which carry with them the spirit of Christmas and the good wishes of the community. Volunteers\, through involvement and contributions\, discover or re-discover the richness of the spirit of Christmas\, the spirit of concern for others\, a spirit which transcends religious affiliations. The Elf Louise Christmas Project is for the benefit of the entire community: no project of this magnitude can long endure if there is not some significant good coming from it that benefits the community as a whole. \nThe appeal of this Project lies in part in its very personal focus. Nothing is done assembly-line style. Presents are chosen and wrapped for each child in each family; Santa\, to the extent that is possible\, visits each family in its own home. All volunteers–with their time\, their energy and their ideas–are welcome; diversity is encouraged. \nThe greatest need for toys is for the youngest children. No guns or simulated weapons allowed. Please make sure your gift is unwrapped as two gifts are given to each child and we need to avoid duplications!
