Charity Update
To celebrate Twitch Prime, Amazon ran a massive sub-drive benefiting GameChanger over the past week. Officially, over 500,000 people subscribed during the drive raising $500,000 for the cause. On top of that, Charity Plaza was packed all weekend with crowds watching over 70 Twitch streamers participate in the Tiltify Charity Decathalon. When the Decathlon ended, the community raised over $55,000 for ten different charities.
