**Charities interested in being a part of Jingle Jam 2023 can now submit their expressions
of interest, with a deadline of 28 February.**

Since 2011, Jingle Jam has raised over £25mn for charities, focusing on supporting
those working to make the world a better place for children and young adults by 
protecting the planet, improving health and wellbeing, and promoting equality, diversity
and inclusion.

It has four main areas of focus for 2023: physical and mental health, diversity 
and inclusion, equality of opportunity, and protecting the planet.

For 2023 it will consider applications for either project funding or unrestricted/
core funding, and its focus will be on understanding the impact and being able to
measure the outcomes of the funding.

Jingle Jam also wants to raise awareness of videogames and their ability to do good.
As such, while charities don’t have to be involved directly with videogames it will
be looking for how they can align with the games industry and gamers themselves 
and tell that story.

#### Application process

To be considered for Jingle Jam 2023, charities must fill out an [Expression of Interest (EOI) form](https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1njNQFbUOsF4bvgXzGsOhDtZOXe06pw4n1ARZvZduYY8/edit?ts=63d79b19)

Those that make it to the next stage will be invited to complete an application 
form providing in-depth information about the charity’s work, detail the outcomes
that fit Jingle Jam’s criteria and explain more about the projects and people the
charity supports.

Jingle Jam will then select 8-12 charities, aiming to let them know by the end of
May. More information on the application process is available [on the site](https://www.jinglejam.co.uk/2023-applications).
