- Gender Equality (Goal 5): The game promotes equal participation among all genders, breaking barriers in the gaming world.
Spreading Joy Beyond Borders
We plan to launch PlayFours™ in 2024 and distribute it globally through partnerships with blind organizations and educational institutions. This not only fosters social inclusion but also creates employment opportunities (Goal 8: Decent Work and Economic Growth) in underserved communities.
The Power of Partnerships (Goal 17):
We believe in the power of collaboration. By partnering with organizations that share our vision, we can maximize PlayFours™’s reach and impact, promoting inclusivity, education, and social well-being on a global scale.
