SUPPORT/SPONSOR.
I love partnering with orgs and FLGS that care about tabletop culture, anime, and community impact. Ask for a sponsor menu or drop a line—let’s build something loud, kind, and unforgettable.
Diversity Saves — Presenting Partner
Why them (from Kei):
Diversity Saves has been championing BIPOC, LGBTQIA+, Disabled, and Neurodivergent creators in TTRPGs from day one—and they changed my life. In 2023, they gave my TTRPG Birthright its first big platform in their charity bundle. That “yes” is why Roll With It! at KinshokuCon is presented with Diversity Saves.
How DS has supported me for KinshokuCon:
- Co-presenting partner on Roll With It! (mission spotlights + donation QR live on-site)
- Providing talking points, brand assets, and co-promo so our audience knows who they are and how to contribute
- Collaborating on “influence-the-game” donation moments that turn generosity into play
What they do:
Diversity Saves distributes grants to marginalized TTRPG makers, supplies game materials to community spaces, and amplifies underrepresented voices across the industry—so more of us get to make, publish, and play.
Why them (from Kei):
Justin at Kingpin is the kind of owner who remembers why we fell in love with comics. His mentor—whose face lives on the shop’s logo—inspired him to build a place that grows community, not just sales. That’s the energy I wanted behind Roll With It!—so Kingpin came in at the top tier to help us make the show bigger and warmer.
How they supported me:
- Top-tier local sponsorship for Roll With It! (logo, on-mic love, prize support)
- Signal-boosting the event to their players and DMs
- Open invitation for future table days so newcomers from the show can keep playing IRL
What they do:
Your friendly neighborhood shop for comics, Pokémon, Magic: The Gathering, and RPGs—with D&D rooms running Thursdays, monthly Adventurers League, new releases 25% off, and shelves full of books, dice, and minis that keep campaigns rolling.
