In its third year, 8-Bit Salute is a 24-hour gaming marathon with a goal of raising $1 million (USD) to provide video game-themed care packages to troops deployed to combat zones or recovering in military hospitals. It will take place May 17–18.
“We are honored and pleased to be working with one of the most trusted brands in the outdoor sporting goods industry to support Operation Supply Drop and 8-Bit Salute," said chief marketing officer Glenn Banton of Operation Supply Drop. “SilencerCo joins an incredible roster of fantastic organizations who have answered the call, bolstering our efforts to provide much-needed diversion and stress relief to our embattled military brothers and sisters around the world.”
