H1Z1 Pro League Player and streamer Miguel "Pineaqples" Lopez has brightened the day of many after teaming up with Gamers Outreach to donate two G.O Karts to the Children's Hospital of UMC.
It’s not every day that you get to witness something truly heart-warming in the gaming community, with most of the news being dominated with the latest results of the various tournaments, like the Overwatch League, or the KEEMSTAR Friday Fortnite Tournament. So when the opportunity comes to acknowledge the hard work and altruism of a high profile personality, it’s important to take the time to look at the good that is happening out there.
Miguel “Pineaqples” Lopez, H1Z1 Pro Player for Echo Fox teamed up with the Gamers Outreach Foundation to donate two GO Karts to the Children’s Hospital of UMC earlier today, after he and his community raised the funds necessary to purchase the machines.
The GO Karts are designed to an easy to use and easy to maintain portable videogame station for use in hospitals where patients have limited access to activities outside of their rooms. As outlined on the Gamers Outreach website, “GO Karts are constructed for use specifically within the medical environment. GO Karts are extremely durable and highly resistant to scratching. The cart can be disinfected easily with the use of simple cleaning products. The cart’s 360 degree swivel wheels and small base footprint make it ideal for movement within hospitals. GO Karts are also equipped with a lift mechanism that allows the height of the unit to be adjusted.”
The newly donated GO Karts will undoubtable brighten the days of sick kids for years to come, as they are now able to do more than just watch the world pass by from a window. For more information on the Gamers Outreach GO Karts program, visit their official website, here.
