\"OurTwitchcon 2022!<\/b><\/p>\n

Huge shout out to our friends over at Twitch for having us of this year\u2019s TwitchCon.\u00a0 <\/span>We got to be part of the Twitchcon 2022 Featured Charities Zone! This included a bunch of awesome charities working together to spread our missions. There was a Mario Speedrun Event raising money and it was split between all the featured charities! The space was right off of the main walkway and we got to meet so many amazing people! Vinny, our program development & marketing administrator, was at the booth giving away cool AbleGamers swag and talking to content creators about how they can support our mission with charity streams! <\/span>It was an exciting time to get to meet all of the wonderful communities supporting the mission. Twitch themselves donating over $5000\u00a0 and fundraising with the Speedrun World Record Circuit Finals community. <\/span>\u00a0It was a great event for AbleGamers and we can’t wait until Twitchcon 2023!<\/span>
