Dames Making Games: Make a donation to DMG.

A not-for-profit for + by new game makers

We are an independent member-run organization. We offer nearly all of our programs and support for free.

Help us continue to offer affordable community resources and events by making a one-time or recurring donation! Our expenses are covered by member dues, workshop fees and donations from people who support our space for queer and gender-marginalized game makers.

Our mandate and facilities meet a demonstrated need for more inclusive access to independent video game culture and resources. Donations from individuals allow us to cover:

Rent on our 1,200-sq.ft studio and workshop space
Software licenses
Developer program fees
Festival and exhibit entry fees
Books and games for our library
Honoraria for speakers and workshop leaders
Exhibition and commission fees
Hardware maintenance + upgrades
Conference travel subsidies
Public transit fare for program participants
Food and childcare during events + workshops
Streaming and recording equipment
Special projects like the ComDev Kit, iV and the Codex
