Charities

Each year the Rocky Mountain Benefit Gamers Association chooses two charities in the Rocky Mountain region to receive the benefit of our BEN CON fund raising efforts.

Urban Peak

Urban Peak is a network of shelters in the Denver area. They are the only shelters in Denver that take in teens without parental permission, and have extensive runaway, drug and alcohol programs.

The Juvenile Diabetes Foundation

Dedicated to finding a cure for Type I insulin-dependent diabetes, the JDF has dozens of programs, many of which directly benefit folks at Ben Con, and probably more folks than you ever thought. Diabetes is becoming a fact of life for more people than ever.
