Itch.io Launches Charity Bundle Of 1,000 Games To Support Ukraine
Itch.io has a history of helping out great causes by bundling up its massive library of indie games and selling them on the cheap. And with the Russian shelling of Ukrainian cities getting worse by the day, Ukraine is certainly a cause that could use the help.

As of the time of this writing, Itch's Bundle For Ukraine has raised almost $800,000 of its $1 million goal.
