Operation Supply Drop Partners with Twitch for “8-Bit Salute” Charity Event
Twitch is proud to announce our participation in military gaming charity Operation Supply Drop’s third-annual “8-Bit Salute,” a 24-hour gaming marathon to be held May 17–18, 2014. Donations raised during this charity event will fund video game filled care packages, offering much needed diversion and stress relief to combat-zone deployed troops and those recovering in military hospitals.
Any streamer that registers and raises over $200 in donations for the troops on their stream will be eligible for a Twitch t-shirt, while one lucky registered streamer will win their very own exclusive purple Twitch hoodie!
To register your stream to take part in this year’s 8-Bit Salute, go here.
