Livestream for JDRF in November and Help Us Raise $20,000

in ,

November is National Diabetes Awareness Month (NDAM), and JDRF Game2Give has big plans! During NDAM, we want to spread type 1 diabetes awareness and raise $20,000 through livestreams on Twitch, YouTube, and Facebook. We can do it with your help!

JDRF Game2Give is JDRF’s partnership with video game players, developers, and publishers—but you’re not limited to video games! Whatever you want to stream—whether it’s video games, music, cooking, board games, hobbies, exercise, just chatting, or something else we haven’t thought of yet—you’re invited to join our NDAM fundraiser.

We’ll be raising funds on Tiltify, an online donation platform that integrates with your Twitch, YouTube, or Facebook channel.

NDAM Fundraising Weekend: November 21-22

November 21-22 is the big weekend. Please do a charity stream for JDRF on one or both of these days to help us beat our $20,000 goal.

Not free then, or want to do more? Our NDAM Tiltify campaign will be open for all of November! So you can fundraise whenever you want during the month and the money you raise will still count toward our NDAM goal.

To participate:

  1. Sign up for JDRF’s livestream fundraising team
  2. RSVP for the event and tell us when you plan to stream
  3. Create an NDAM campaign on Tiltify

Raise $250 to Win a “No Limits” Shirt

By streaming for JDRF, you’re helping us fund the research that will someday cure type 1 diabetes. To say thank you, we’ll send a “No Limits” NDAM T-shirt to anyone who raises $250 or more through Tiltify in November. Choose from one of three styles (unisex short sleeve, women’s short sleeve, or long sleeve).

Tools to Help You Fundraise

We have all sorts of tools and goodies to help with your charity stream. Check out our Streaming Resources and Streaming Assets pages, where you’ll find JDRF talking points, fundraising tutorials, videos you can play during your streams, logos, fundraising overlays, Rufus emoji, and more.
