It’s Your Move Games takes community activism seriously. We have many connections to the community: we participate in the TBID (Temescal Business Improvement District) and have many connections to the other merchants in Temescal. We support local schools, libraries and teachers with educational games, direct donations, and community events.
Currently we are collecting donated games, money and time for the project hosted by the non profit SkunkWorks. We’re working with SkunkWorks to build and maintain the recreation room at San Quentin prison, and advocate for prison reform nationwide. You can help by purchasing games, donating new or used games, and donating time to Skunkworks.
In the past we have we have supported many equity projects, winter toy drives for our local women’s shelter, providing game days for disadvantaged children, providing a community space for adults with disabilities, and providing an inclusive safe place for many underserved communities.
Oakland Green Party
We work with the Oakland Green Party, a subchapter of the Alameda County Green Party, to host events, including a free potluck and movie night on the last Sunday of every month, and serving as a hub to distribute voter guides during election seasons. Store-hosted activities are for all community members, not just Green Party supporters. You don’t need to be a party member to appreciate a well-researched voter guide, or enjoy a hot slice of pizza with a free movie!
