The annual Indie charity event is coming back this November, details below:
For those who don’t know about the 12 Days of Indie, you might be asking: What is that? Well, the 12 Days of Indie is a 12-day event being held this November from the 7th through the 12th. Starting at Midnight EST, many Twitch broadcasters from all over the world will be raising funds and awareness on https://twitch.tv/indie for Toys For Tots, a charity organization that attempts to make sure no child goes without a Christmas gift each year. Each caster brings their own flair to the proverbial table to raise as much money to allow a child to experience the joy of a new toy. All this while having fun streaming games and having giveaways throughout all twelve days.
The 12 Days of Indie has striven to bring streamers, developers, publishers, and viewers together to attempt to raise $12,000 USD for Toys For Tots each year since December 2013. Our goal goes beyond merely raising money. In addition to charity fundraising, the 12 Days of Indie also wants to bring awareness to indie game developers and publishers to a wide variety of international audiences. This year is no different. A variety of developers and some publishers will be involved during a few casters’ streams, sometimes throwing out giveaways of their own!
We’ve already announced on our Twitter (@12DaysofIndie) that our first sponsor for this year is RightStuf! We’re looking forward to bringing you more news and excitement about this year’s event as time goes on.
