The Twitch streamer CDawg hosted a charity stream with his fellow streamers where they had to pedal on bicycles. Together, they were able to raise a considerable amount with the community.
What kind of charity stream is this? For the 5th consecutive year, the Twitch streamer Connor CDawg
Colquhoun teamed up with a group to cycle and raise donations for a good cause. The donations go to the Immune Deficiency Foundation, which supports people with immune deficiencies.
This year, the YouTuber Chris Broad joined CDawg to pedal with him for 15 days. Other guests also stopped by at different parts of the stream. Together, they rode through Japan. The Twitch stream was, of course, always on, allowing the community to donate actively.
The donation campaign was inspired by CDawg’s streaming colleague Ironmouse. The VTuber suffers from an immune deficiency and uses her reach repeatedly to raise awareness and encourage donations. In the past, she has donated substantial amounts herself, but CDawg’s Cyclethon certainly brings even more reach to be used for a good cause.
15 days of pedaling for 1.2 million euros
How much money was raised? The final destination of this year’s Cyclethon was a restaurant in Japan. Here, the participants gathered, celebrated by the present audience, and also announced the final amount: just over 1,470,000 dollars, which translates to approximately 1,250,058 euros.
CDawg also thanked for the successful charity stream on X:
Thus, CDawg narrowly missed the set goal of 1.5 million dollars but was able to set a new record for his charity campaign. When adding up all his donation earnings from past Cyclethons with this year’s, the total exceeds 5 million dollars.
Other content creators also regularly host charity streams on Twitch. This includes English-speaking streamers and YouTubers who even went to Wembley Stadium for a charity football match against each other. They achieved an impressive sum of over 7 million euros: 90,000 viewers watch 34 content creators play football and donate over 7 million euros
