The esports and gaming division of Ford Models is latest to be added to the lineup of supporters for the Save the Children #GamingTuesday initiative. 

Launched by Save the Children back in 2015, the two-week “Giving Tuesday” initiative for gamers has so far raised $500K, and this year runs from Tuesday 24 November to Tuesday 8 December. 

Tomorrow, the esports and gaming division of the iconic New York-based Ford Models, which launched in summer, will be joining the cause, streaming from 6pm to 9pm. Ford’s talent line-up will include Twitch streamers Drew “Frozone” Bienusa, Eric “CLipZ” Rivera, Paul “Rabies” Santoro, Ivan “OGKINGCURT” Curtiss, in addition to Avori “Avori” Henderson on Facebook Gaming.

This year saw the number of gamers involved cross the 100 mark for the first time, and the event is running across several streaming platforms, including Twitch, YouTube Gaming, and Facebook Gaming, in addition to livestream fundraising platform Tiltify

With activations across North America, Europe, and Asia, the event is being supported by Save the Children’s Stream Team, which includes content creators like Markiplier, Jacksepticeye, Hank and John Green, and many more. Elgato is also supporting this years’ fundraising efforts, providing rewards and a match up to $10K.

With the COVID-19 pandemic exacerbating existing crises around the world, the world of charities like Save the Children has never been so urgently needed, so it’s brilliant to see this years’ #GamingTuesday initiative is attracting so much support, and kudos to Ford Models for throwing their talent behind it.
