More than a charity fundraising drive!
Jingle Jam is the world's largest gaming charity event, and this year we’re partnering with it! Kicking off at 5:00pm GMT on 1st of December and running until 14th of December, Jingle Jam 2023 will herald two wonderful weeks of epic and heart-wrenching fundraising streams across multiple channels.
The Yogscast Twitch channel will feature streams hosted by members of the Yogscast and their friends, featuring some of the most popular creators on Twitch and YouTube. Additionally, content creators the world over are encouraged to host their own streams pushing donations to the charities closest to their hearts. Last year saw 215 fundraisers as other creators, charities and games companies raised over £480,000 by running their own Jingle Jam streams.
The charities being supported by people’s donations this year are:
- Autistica
- Campaign Against Living Miserably (CALM)
- CoppaFeel!
- Comic Relief
- Galop
- Hello World
- Justdiggit
- Movember
- RNIB
- The Grand Appeal - Wallace & Gromit's Children's Foundation

This year's Jingle Jam Games Collection is the biggest yet, with over £1,000 (about $1,200) worth of games! The collection is available to anyone who donates £35 (about $42) or more.
