Channel Revenue direct to Charity Allow streamer the option to donate all channel revenue (subs, cheers, sales) directly to a charity. For maximum transparency the money could go from Twitch directly to the charity, and ideally maybe Twitch would consider taking a lesser percentage so that more of the money gets to the charity?

Safe In Our World I'd love to see Safe In Our World as a charity to support natively in Twitch. I've worked with this organisation in the past, and they do some amazing work around mental health. Their goal is to create and foster worldwide mental health awareness within the video game industry; to eliminate the stigma surrounding mental health, to make it a natural topic of discussion, and to promote the dialogue surrounding mental health so people are not afraid to reach out for help if they need it.

Develop and enact a policy preventing harmful charities from accessing Twitch's charity tool Twitch's current community guidelines focuses behaviors that happen on site but many nonprofits do not stream or engage on Twitch. And becoming a nonprofit within the United States is relatively easy and affordable. FB, Google, and YouTube have stances against nonprofits that are discriminatory in nature or provide access only if the recipient of the program converts to their religion. Allowing nearly any nonprofit to be fundraised for through Twitch's charity product opens a new vector for abuse one that has serious real world implications given that money is involved.

Acknowledge Autism Speaks breaks the Off Service Conduct Policy Autism speaks serves as one of the most notorious Autism advocacy groups thanks to their history of persistent misinformation, hateful conduct, and recommendations of ABA therapy.
