FOR VETERANS

Your next mission starts here.

Gold Star Gamers was built by people who understand service, loss, and what it means to show up when it matters. Whether you want to build something, mentor someone, or just be part of a community that gets it, there’s a place for you here.

JOIN OUR GLOBAL DISCORD COMMUNITY

Join the Gold Star Gamers Discord and connect with veterans, streamers, creators, corporate partners, and fellow nonprofits—all working toward the same goal. This is where collaborations start, campaigns take shape, and a shared mission turns into real impact.

BECOME A MENTOR

Not every impact needs to be massive. Sometimes it’s as simple as showing up. If you can give just four hours a month, you can spend time playing games with a Gold Star kid who could use consistency, connection, and someone in their corner.

You don’t need to be a top player. You don’t need to play specific games. We welcome veterans from all backgrounds and interests. What matters is reliability and being someone they can count on.

We offer:

  • One-on-one mentorship
  • Group sessions

All mentors are required to complete a background check and onboarding process to ensure a safe and supportive environment.

If you’re willing to show up, we’ll take care of the rest.

VOLUNTEER TO STREAM

Put your next stream to work for Gold Star Gamers. By hosting a fundraising stream, you can help provide gaming experiences, mentorship, and community for children who have lost a military or veteran parent.

You don’t need a huge following to make a difference. Bring your favorite games, your personality, and an invitation for your viewers to give.

Sign up to volunteer, and let’s turn your time on stream into something meaningful for Gold Star kids.

INTRODUCING: GOLD STAR STUDIOS

We’re launching Gold Star Studios, a publishing initiative focused on helping veteran creators bring their games to life.

We collaborate with you to help shape, refine, and ship your project while giving it the visibility it deserves.

We’re especially interested in projects with strong perspectives, original ideas, or stories that don’t usually get told—but if you believe in it, that’s enough to start the conversation.

You bring the vision. We help you bring it to life—and make sure it’s seen.

If you’re working on a game—or have an idea you haven’t had the support to pursue,
we want to hear from you!
