The Turtles Are Home!

“I have lots of thanks to give to John Geiger of Arcade Super Awesome who helped me transport, unbox, and set up my new Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles pinball machine.

He was also the one who took the pictures.

I love the pin, it is so much fun to play!

Again, I really appreciate your work to benefit Children’s Hospitals and Ronald McDonald Houses. It makes me so proud to help in my small way to support your mission.

Thanks again, Bob”

Saving One Pinball Machine at a Time!

Howard has done it again for Project Pinball!

We have been in contact with a few wonderful donors in the Northeast recently and this is another wonderful pinball machine that has been generously donated to Project Pinball Charity!

World Cup Soccer is already a perfect theme that we have placed in 2019 that was so very special to us in Oregon at Oregon Health & Science University (OHSU)! It is still loved and cherished to this day.

This World Cup Soccer will be going to another special location coming this year! Until then, we’ll be restoring this to its full glory, with Howard’s help, of course! So that it may have many more years of enjoyment ahead!
GOAALLL!!!

But, this was not the first time Howard has saved the day and been able to pick up a donation on our behalf!

Each of these amazing pinball machines has been generously donated to Project Pinball Charity!
Each one is special to us and to our charity’s mission! They all will be used for fundraising purposes or possibly placed on location in the near future!
Howard is one of our amazing volunteers who will go out on our behalf to pick up pins that are donated throughout the Northeast!
Every pinball machine donation is tax-deductible.
We never want to see a pinball machine out in the elements.
We don’t want to see any of them set out to be trashed either, so we accept all donations because after all Project Pinball is #forpinball & #forthekids
Contact Howard or us with questions!

Love Across America Tour 2019 Recap

This past summer, our team traveled by car over 9,000 miles within 46 days from Southwest Florida to Missouri making over 20 stops in 10 different states. Our 5th annual Love Across America Tour was extremely special to us this year because we were able to place over 5 pinball machines in 4 different hospitals across the country. One of the machines placed was at an assisted living facility, which was a first but not a last for us!

We now have a total of 46 pinball machines placed and we aren’t stopping anytime soon. With still two months left until the new year, we have 2-4 pinball machines ready to be placed by the end of December.

Thank you to all of our supporters, friends, and family who without you – none of what we do would be possible. We can’t wait to show you what we have in store for 2020!

Project Pinball Adds Assisted Living Facilities to Nationwide Mission

The Project Pinball Charity is very excited to announce that we have a Brand-New story to tell!

We set out back in 2011 to place as many pinball machines as possible throughout our nation for a therapeutic benefit to anyone who comes in contact with the machines we place.

AND we are doing just that!

Not only are we dealing with Children’s Hospitals, Ronald McDonald Houses, and Adult Care Hospitals

Now we are also adding…

ASSISTED LIVING FACILITIES!

That’s right! We are thrilled to announce that as of tomorrow we will have the first of hopefully many pinball machines dedicated to an Assisted Living Facility!

Project Pinball Honored at Walter Day’s 90th Trading Card Award Ceremonies

The celebration of Walter Aldro Day Jr.’s 70th Birthday took place May 18th, in Banning, California. It was held at the Museum of Pinball. John Weeks, the founder of the museum, brought about two dozen of the most popular and iconic arcade videos and pinballs for the party-goers to play for free.

Walter Day himself held his 90th trading card award ceremony as well, where Project Pinball was honored to receive not our first but SECOND trading card into the hall of fame. Project Pinball was one of the hundreds of new exclusive trading cards that were unveiled at the ceremony. We were so grateful and honored to be in attendance for Walter’s birthday celebration! This card took several months of planning and designing exclusively for our charity.

We are deeply honored to be receiving recognition once again for our charity’s accomplishments!
