Game for Ciara!

February 4, 2017 @ 12:00 pm - 11:55 pm

Join us on Saturday, February 4 for a charity game event! We’re raising money for 9-year old Portsmouth-resident Ciara, who was diagnosed with a malignant brain tumor in December 2016, to assist with the increased financial demands of her treatment. Her family is bearing many financial burdens during this time, such as medical bills, traveling costs, and groceries. You can visit their Facebook page and GoFundMe page for additional information and to make a donation.

We are asking for a $5 suggested donation per person to participate in this event. We understand that our game events are always free, but all donations will go directly to Ciara’s family. Her family is also looking for assistance with fuel and food costs, and we will gladly accept donations of gas and grocery cards on their behalf.

Diversions will donate 10% of sales on Saturday, February 4 to the cause.
