Tomorrow I’m so excited to introduce you to three new Global Gaming Citizens in partnership with @FacebookGaming - you’ll hear their stories tomorrow! #TheGameAwards

[CBS Evening News with Tony Dokoupil @CBSEveningNews]

It’s unlike any video game you’ve ever seen, rooted in a personal story of survival.

Created by a former refugee, the prize is at once simple and elusive: peace.

@JanCBS has the story https://t.co/srAh8gtPXj

It means so much to have support from @Reggie, former president of @NintendoAmerica such a great person!

There's like, uh, 5(?) Afghans in games so seeing @CodeToInspire get some recognization at #TheGameAwards was really really cool.

"Mayen spent most of his young life doubting he would live to see the next day. He never had enough food. His friends were conscripted as child soldiers. Bombs regularly fell from the sky."

[Steven Spohn (Spawn) @stevenspohn]

Months later this still helps on bad days

I've found a good way to remember things that happen offline, like a stranger complimenting you or a workmates saying something nice, is use your phone's notepad and write down what was said, then take a screenshot of that

[Global Gaming Citizens @GGCitizens]

If you can pledge, pledge! We're rooting for @SocialCipher to smash its goal!

[Social Cipher 🚀 @SocialCipher]

It's the last day to make it to our $5,000 goal in 5 days! We're less than $300 from our goal so help us make it the final rest of the way! 🎮🚀 Thank you to everyone who has supported so far - you're stellar!✨
