Game in Style and for a Good Cause – Inside the Charities Behind Techni Sport Gaming Chairs

Don’t forget to use the code ‘TeamDFTG to save on your new gaming chair.

Gamers have their nest: their perfect set up to dive in and conquer worlds unknown, whether it’s rescuing that princess or working on that K/D, a gamer’s space is their haven for adventures, time with friends, or a little solo get-away from reality for a bit. Console and PC gamers alike put time into that little slice of heaven and one way that can be done is with that perfect gaming chair, a stylized throne that has been gaining a lot of popularity in the market over recent years. So what makes Techni Sport different from “the other guys”? Glad you asked.

At first glance, their site looks like many others. They’ve got the different variations, which can be seen here alongside the prices, of chairs with assorted colour options, which is great – but not all that uncommon. Looking past the details put into the chairs themselves and their comfortable style they can offer, those different colour choices actually serve a much more relatable purpose. Each colour represents a different cause to support, giving one more way that gamers can give back to the community, back to a cause they can stand behind, while doing what they love. Here is a break down on how you can style your little slice of paradise while putting a little good out their in the world:

White Gaming Chair: Veterans

A lot of our readers know that the co-owners Chewy and LiLi are both veterans, so this brand of chair is something DFTG holds close to our hearts. A sad truth is that approximately 20 US veterans commit suicide every day, something that has personally affected us here as well. There are programs in place to help veterans get back on their feet, both physically and mentally, but they need our help. When you purchase a white gaming chair from Techni, a portion of the sales will go to help these programs to help our veterans.

Red Gaming Chair: Disaster Relief

Earthquakes, tsunamis, wildfires,  mudslides, tornadoes, human attacks on a mass scale – even oil spills – are all forms of disaster that can drastically change a person’s life from one second to the next. These devastating events can be fatal for some, life altering for others, but there is help for those affected by both natural and manufactured disasters. 

It is important to remember that even with our country’s increased emphasis on disaster awareness and preparedness, Disaster Relief ultimately depends on the work of volunteers and is dangerous, stressful work, often in extreme environments.”

When you purchase a red gaming chair from Techni, a portion of the sales will go to help disaster relief foundations with supplies and manpower to be a positive force in the world.

Blue Gaming Chair: Hunger

Hunger is something that affects the entire world. In America alone, every 1 out of 6 people will go hungry not knowing where their next meal will come from. There are food banks all over the country to assist in this cause to make sure that children no longer have to worry about when they can eat next, or adults faced with the same issue. When you purchase a blue gaming chair from Techni, a portion of the sales will go to help combat hunger by donating to local food banks locally to help build a stronger community.

Pink Gaming Chair: Breast Cancer

Breast cancer research has come a long way, but the fight is no where near being over. This disease claims over 40,000 lives every year in the US. With every year that passes, the studies going into finding a cure grow but they need our help to continue the search. Breast cancer affects both men and women and is something that touches many lives in some way or another. When you purchase a pink gaming chair from Techni, a portion of the sales will go towards education and research into breast cancer.

Orange Gaming Chair: Multiple Sclerosis 

Another cause that hits close to home for the DFTG community. In 2013, Liana “LiLi”, the co-owner for Don’t Feed the Gamers, was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis. This disease is still considered a large mystery in the medical community as far as the origins and predicting its manifestation. MS affects the brain, spinal cord, and optic nerves that can mean a variety of symptoms from loss of vision to loss of mobility completely. When you purchase an orange gaming chair from Techni, a portion of the sales will go towards research and funding for MS and those living with this disease. 

Yellow Gaming Chair: Children with Autism

There is a lot of information out there for autism and what it means and how it can come to be. Over the past several years, this condition has blown up in the media for reasons both positive and negative. Autism falls on a wide spectrum, affecting children in many different ways. It is a disorder that impacts the nervous system but its symptoms are so vast and varied, that it often is misdiagnosed or overlooked completely. When you purchase a yellow gaming chair, a portion of the sales will go towards funding research into Autism and to help children diagnosed with this disorder.

Black Gaming Chair: Alzheimer’s Disease

Alzheimer’s is a sneaky disease that slowly destroys memory and vital mental functions. Though there is treatment to slow progression and aid in daily life productivity, there has yet to be a cure found. This degenerative disease has a strong impact on those suffering from Alzheimer’s and the surrounding friends and family. When you purchase a black gaming chair from Techni, a portion of the sales will go towards imparetive research into the disease itself as well as improving the quality of life from those diagnosed.

Techni Sport is an American-based company whose mission is to “provide the ultimate gaming experience through next-level quality, comfort, and design.” Through the design of their chairs, the materials used, and the message behind each product available, Techni Sport is a company that stands out above the rest. If you’re in the market for stepping up your gamer set up, consider looking to Techni Sport for your chair of choice. As mentioned above, there are several causes that are near and dear to the hearts of the DFTG team and we’d love to see more involvement in these charities!
