Gaming Charity Stack Up Celebrates 10 Years at Geeky Teas and Games on Nov. 1

Stack Up Has Served 70,000 Veterans Across Various Programs in the Last Decade

LOS ANGELES - Oct. 29, 2025 - Stack Up, the 501(c)3 military charity dedicated to supporting US and Allied Veterans’ mental health through gaming and working to end the epidemic of veteran suicide, celebrates its 10th anniversary with an in-person fundrasing event at Geeky Teas and Games in Burbank, CA, on Saturday, Nov. 1, 2025 from 12-8 PM PT.

The gaming charity distributes care packages of games, gear, and more to support the mental health of veterans and deployed units. Stack Up has delivered over a quarter of a million game codes, and hosted paid-in-full trips for more than 130 passionate vets to attend gaming and geek culture events. The volunteer team takes great pride in supporting those who have served by providing connection and community via the joy of gaming.

Stack Up has partnered up with some of the biggest names in the video game industry, including AAA publishers Nintendo, Sony, EA, Blizzard, Capcom, among others. Their valued contributions alongside the support of popular streamers such as MadVikingKing, Lord_Zath, Broken_Stoic, Hyf1re, and countless others have helped further propel the organization to its success today.

The devoted foundation actively works to build online communities that provide peer-to-peer support for both physical and mental health. Through initiatives like the The Overwatch Program, the team has provided mental health assistance to over 1,839 vets via peer-based mental health crisis mitigation. Stack Up commits to its promise that no one is left behind in a culture dedicated to healing and togetherness.

Throughout a decade of giving back to the warriors of this country, Stack Up has raised over $7M for veterans. Their work is more important than ever, at a time where vets are losing critical care and services across the United States every day.

“As an organization, we’re incredibly grateful for the support we have been able to provide veterans over the past decade” said Stephen Machuga, Executive Director, Stack Up. “Thanks to the continued backing of donors, content creators, and industry partners, we look forward to the next chapter for Stack Up, and the ways we’ll continue uplifting our community.”
