October is here, and we know the community loves to use spooky season to fundraise for charity! Our charity partners have some great fundraising opportunities this month, and we are excited to share them with you!

Looking for a cause this month? Check out this list of charities with cool things happening this month!

💙NBCF

Event: Game Pink by NBCF - BCAM 2024

1 in 8 women in the U.S. will be diagnosed with breast cancer in her lifetime. That’s more than 700 women every day.

Early detection is one of the best ways to increase chances of survival, but many women don’t have access to care. We bridge that gap because no one should face breast cancer alone.

When navigating a diagnosis, standing still isn’t an option. We take action now so you can dream of a future tomorrow.

We’re dedicated to Helping Women Now. It is our mission year-round and our rally cry to our community this October because breast cancer won’t wait.

So join us by creating your charity stream today!

💙 American Red Cross

Event: Gamers vs. Disasters

Gamers from all over the country will come together this October to fight back against disasters.

By joining the battle, you’re helping the Red Cross provide critical aid for communities impacted by disasters big and small — like hurricanes, home fires, wildfires, floods and more.

Every dollar you raise during Rescue Royale translates directly into vital resources for those in need. Your support helps the Red Cross deliver immediate relief and long-term recovery for families facing their most challenging times.

• $11 provides 1 hot meal, snack and beverage to a person.
• $20 provides breakfast, lunch, and dinner for someone staying at a Red Cross shelter in the aftermath of a storm.
• $50 provides a full day of food and shelter for 1 person

Together, we can make a real difference. Your participation not only contributes to immediate disaster relief but also supports ongoing recovery efforts to rebuild lives and communities.

Join us this October to game with a purpose and show that when gamers unite, we can conquer the toughest challenges.

Ready to level up for a cause? Start your fundraising journey today and be a hero for disaster-affected communities everywhere!

💙 Blue Cross

Event: Hallow-Stream 2024

The cost of living crisis is haunting pets, leaving them in dire need of help and Blue Cross need your help

It's an especially scary time of year if you're a black cat. Overlooked because of old superstitions, they stay in rehoming centres for five eerie extra days and cost £50 more for us to find loving homes for!

Join us between October 1 and November 7 as we turn Halloween, into Hallow-Stream to break this curse.

Fundraise and cast a spell of kindness as we help make sure that pets can live healthy lives in happy homes.
