Mission: Our mission is to break down systemic barriers to opportunity by providing access to technology, fostering community through gaming, and building pathways for personal and professional growth. Through dynamic events, educational programs, and advocacy efforts, we work to reshape the gaming world into one that reflects and uplifts all players, especially those too often left out. We believe in the power of play to build bridges, cultivate joy, and create social change. Together, we are redefining what it means to game for the greater good.
Vision: We use gaming as a catalyst to build a better world, one where marginalized people have access to safety, community, and joy. Through inclusive spaces and transformative play, we create belonging, break down barriers, and affirm the value of every individual.
Gaming is more than entertainment, it’s a powerful platform for connection, learning, and growth. We harness its potential to build community, teach digital and interpersonal skills, foster creativity, and empower people to lead. Whether through casual play, competitive esports, or collaborative storytelling, we center those who are too often left out and help them find their place, voice, and power.
At Gotham Gaming, we believe that when marginalized communities are equipped with tools, support, and a sense of belonging, they don’t just play the game, they change it.
Values: Inclusion, Innovation, Community, Joy, Equity.
Chicago is our Gotham. Bold. Gritty. Joyful. Resilient.
This city has always belonged to the underdogs…the hustlers, the artists, the dreamers, the misfits. At Gotham Gaming, we channel that energy to build something powerful: a community where marginalized people can come together through play, find safety in connection, and unlock new paths through technology and joy. We're not just gamers, we’re builders of safe spaces, breakers of barriers, and believers in the power of fun to fuel real change.
