The Ladies of the Round Table Nation (LORTNation) are working very hard to create and keep content fresh and entertaining, and now we need your help to take our show on the road. We have started a campaign to help us raise the quality level of our live show as well as to give back to the community in a great way.

We have partnered with people from all over our community and industry to create a #LORTNATION scholarship program designed to help kids fulfill their dreams of going to college for Science, Technology, Engineering and Math (STEM) education based jobs.

We are currently accepting applications from educators around the country for grades 6-10. Through working with fans, development studios, and tech companies, our youth will be given the opportunity to learn the "ins and outs" of the gaming industry (either through field trips or having someone visit their classroom).

It is our hope that by meeting with the men and women who work in this field, that it will create a spark for students to consider a career in gaming/STEM based job.


We want to use this funding to inspire kids to work smart and to work hard, and to not settle for just a high school diploma. Show less
