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.

Can’t take part on May 17-18? Have no fear, the make-up weekend is May 24-25, 2014!
