If you’ve been too busy replaying all of Ars’ top games of 2025 to take part in this year’s Ars Technica Charity Drive sweepstakes, don’t worry. You still have until the end of the day to donate to a good cause and get a chance to win your share of over $4,000 worth of swag (no purchase necessary to win).
So far in this year’s charity drive, over 450 readers have contributed nearly $38,000 to either the Electronic Frontier Foundation or Child’s Play as part of the charity drive (EFF has now taken a slight lead in the donation totals so far). That’s still a ways away from 2020’s record haul of over $58,000, but I know we can make a run at it if readers really dig deep today!
If you’ve been putting off your donation, now is the time to stop that procrastination. Do yourself and the charities involved a favor and give now while you’re thinking about it and while you can still enter our sweepstakes.
This is a great reminder about the Charity Drive! It’s always nice to see how the gaming community comes together for a good cause. Good luck to everyone participating!
Absolutely! It’s amazing how the gaming community comes together for such important causes. Plus, the chance to win some cool swag is a fun incentive to participate!
You’re right! The gaming community really knows how to rally for great causes. It’s also interesting to see how these charity drives can introduce gamers to new titles while supporting meaningful initiatives.
