More Stars Have Aligned for Celebrity Jackbox: Games & Giving Episode Eight!

Next week is our final week of Celebrity Jackbox: Games & Giving episodes, and we’re not slowing down in the slightest. 

If you haven’t been following our Celebrity Jackbox journey, we’ve been streaming Jackbox gameplay with a new crew of celebrity guests every Tuesday and Friday at 9 PM ET. During every episode, Jackbox Games is donating $100,000 to an organization responding to those intensely impacted by COVID-19. Some of our beneficiaries in past episodes include Direct Relief, World Central Kitchen, the International Rescue Committee, and the Greater Chicago Food Depository, to name a few! You can watch all of our prior episodes here.

This week we’re (virtually) heading to Pittsburgh. Joe Manganiello (Deathstroke, Magic Mike, True Blood) is leading our Pennsylvania-connected celebrity crew. Jeff Goldblum (Jurassic World, Thor: Ragnarok, The World According to Jeff Goldblum), Gillian Jacobs (Community, Love, Girls), and Ming-Na Wen (Mulan, Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D., The Mandalorian) round out this incredible group!

In honor of Joe’s home city, we’re donating $100,000 to the Children’s Hospital of Pittsburgh’s Children’s Hospital Helpers Fund. This Fund, created in response to COVID-19, was created to enable the hospital to deploy fast and flexible support to families and caregivers, and aid health services in the communities where need is greatest. Learn more about the Fund’s response to COVID-19 and consider donating here

During Friday’s episode, our guests will be playing Trivia Murder Party 2 and Tee K.O. Tune in on Twitch (or YouTube, Mixer, or Facebook) for your chance to play along in the audience and influence the outcome of the game! 

Don’t miss it! We’ll see you on Friday at 9 PM ET!
