Women earn an average of 82% of what men earn (Pew Research Center analysis of median hourly earnings of both full- and part-time workers.) That's $0.18 less for every $1 a man earns. For moms, women of color, and women with disabilities, that pay variance is even higher.

WIGI is working to close that pay gap through free-to-access programs, workshops, panels, and initiatives for a global community of 50,000+ gaming professionals. Help us cross the finish line! 👟

Walk, Run, or Play your way to 18 kilometers (11.2 miles) in support of raising awareness to promote change and close this pay gap.
