#CAREgaming

There are over three billion gamers around the world, and many want to leverage their community of followers to bring awareness of global crises and to help those struggling with poverty, hunger and conflict. CARE is so thankful to the amazing streamers and gamers who have raised close to $3 million to save lives, defeat poverty, achieve social justice, and fight for women and girls.

Every day streamers go live on Twitch, YouTube, Facebook and other platforms to talk to viewers while playing a game, reviewing content from others or even hosting a tournament. This presents a unique opportunity to talk about charitable causes that are important to the streamer. By using fundraising tools like Brandfluence and Tiltify you can easily turn your stream into a charity event for all their viewers. It’s simple and easy and provides a way to help others in need.

Currently #CAREgaming partners with Brandfluence and uses Tiltify in fundraising efforts to support initiatives.

Yes. Esports/Gaming organizations are an integral part of the program. The most common way is by naming CARE as the charitable partner in your tournament. Have another idea? We’d love to hear about it. Please contact us by reaching out to Michael Burlingame at michael.burlingame@care.org.

You can make a difference in several ways. If you are streaming or vlogging, you can use a partner like Brandfluence to add a fundraising component to your stream. Brandfluence is a free-to-use online fundraising platform that seamlessly integrates into any livestream platform. Anyone, at any time, can create a campaign for their favorite charity. You can get started here.

You can fundraise around any of your content. A few ideas are:

• Emergency Response. We never know where disasters will strike. Our disaster relief efforts are always ready. Your support makes this lifesaving work possible.
• Celebration. Instead of gifts this year, start a birthday, graduation or other special occasion fundraiser.
• Fitness. Help raise money while tracking your fitness progress and goals.
• Just Because. Are you passionate about the work CARE does? You can fundraise anytime you are streaming!

• CARE’s premiere partner is Brandfluence and they provide the fundraising platform for the stream. However, Brandfluence does not receive or handle any of the donations – all donations are processed through the Givinga Foundation, a 501(c)(3) organization. Givinga then distributes 100% of the donations to CARE.
• If you are using Tiltify for your fundraising stream, 100% of the donation is then sent directly to CARE in real-time.
