Manufacturers: Join the Movement
Become a Partner in Purpose: Games for Good
You create more than just games; you create shared experiences, community, and learning. Partnering with The Koinonia is a powerful way to put your product’s mission into practice and extend your brand’s positive social impact into a critical, underserved population.
The Unique Challenge We Solve:
Correctional facilities operate under strict security and material restrictions. Most standard games are immediately rejected due to materials (glass, metal, certain types of paper/cardboard) or inappropriate content.
The Koinonia’s Value Proposition to Manufacturers:
Vetting & Compliance Expertise
We are the experts in navigating the complex procurement and compliance requirements of county, state, and federal facilities. We streamline the approval process so your games can safely enter the system.
Product Adaptation & Supply
We work with your design and production teams to identify or adapt existing games using approved materials (e.g., specific plastic/wood components, tear-resistant paper) to ensure they meet security standards without sacrificing gameplay quality.
Measurable Social Impact
Your partnership enables direct, documented impact in correctional facilities. This provides a powerful, authentic story for your own corporate social responsibility (CSR) reporting and marketing.
Brand Visibility and Goodwill
Be recognized as a pioneering partner on our website, in our outreach, and through our network of facilities and donors. Demonstrate to your customer base that your games are truly for everyone.
HOW TO PARTNER
Ready to build fellowship behind the walls?
We are seeking partnerships for:
- Product Donation: Supplying existing games that meet or can easily be adapted to compliance standards.
- Co-Design & Production: Collaborating with our team on facility-approved component manufacturing.
- Financial Sponsorship: Funding the production and distribution costs of approved games.

The Return on Investment: Reduced Recidivism
Investing in programs that build social and cognitive skills is proven to be cost-effective.
The Cost of Failure is High: Reincarceration costs taxpayers billions annually, not to mention the immense social cost of continued crime and fractured families.
The Power of Rehabilitation: Educational and structured recreational programs contribute to better behavioral outcomes in facilities and a smoother, more successful transition back to the community. You are helping to break the cycle.
