Charity

ATTENTION! Regarding charity requests...

The charity tool is now fully integrated with the PayPal Giving Fund, so if your charity is registered there, you should be able to find it to start a fundraising campaign. In the case you find your charity missing, please reach out to the organization regarding registering with the PayPal Giving Fund. You can learn more about how to sign up your charity here: https://help.twitch.tv/s/article/twitch-charity-charities. For more information on Twitch’s Charity Tool, please feel free to access our FAQ Help Article: https://help.twitch.tv/s/article/twitch-charity-faqs.

How it works:
  • Choose a relevant category for your idea to check to see if any other users have already submitted this suggestion before creating your own
  • Upvoting existing ideas will increase the weight behind the idea, as opposed to multiple similar requests (we will combine these anyway)
  • Be sure to share your suggestion with others to gain more support!
  • Note: Suggestions are not guarantees that we will take action on an idea. We will try our best to communicate why an idea may not work, but may not always be able to share that information
If you need help:
This forum is for ideas only. If you need help, please check out our help portal for tons of articles that may answer your questions. If you still need help, you can reach out to our support team in the help portal as well!

Appeals or commentary on suspension decisions, support requests, suggestions disparaging others, and non-constructive feedback will be closed without comment.

  2. It would be really helpful for mods to be able to view the donation list with donor names and amounts during the charity stream because they are often the ones who help prioritize and deliver the rewards. I had a lot of trouble with this last night my first time doing a charity stream with Twitch’s tool - everything got very confusing for keeping the song requests going in order. (Music stream) thank you!

  5. There are many charities and institutions that are enrolled on the Paypal Giving Fund and that don't show up as options to create a fundraiser in the Twitch Charity Board.
    There doesn't even seem to be an option to fundraise for any charities in Portugal...
    This should really get fixed asap, knowing that Christmas is around the corner and people will want to fundraise during the season.

    For example: Portuguese UNICEF https://www.paypal.com/PT/fundraiser/charity/3656552

    Or even the Red Cross: https://www.paypal.com/PT/fundraiser/charity/3656555

    and other associations https://www.paypal.com/PT/fundraiser/charity/4121444

  6. Twitch should allow an option for partnership or simple collaboration among organizations. As a representative for The McCandle Project, I have been struggling to reach out to Twitch with a very simple but positive idea. Our inquiry has been too get help from Twitch with a small campaign, but we have heard so little in return. Our proposition would hopefully allow communities to engage more with digital advocacy.

  7. I am loving the new Charity options and it helped me kick off my first fundraiser! I would love to see an option for an on screen alert/ browser source from Twitch so we can better recognize the folks that are helping out. Showing it in the chat can get lost during faster conversations and I believe in recognition for those that go above and beyond by helping out.

  8. Give charities the ability to launch a Twitch Channel with a badge (e.g. :bleedpurple:) and instead of a subscribe button offer a SUPPORT button that shows the option to make a donation or start a fundraising campaign.

    Allow charities to create events that are visible in the creator dashboard -- this would be useful right now (September 19th) as creators are looking for ways to support PR and if they fundraise on Twitch instead of Tiltify or StreamLabs the funds are not earmarked specifically for PR.

  9. It would be nice to have some UK based charities and smaller charities like preschools I have one based in my village which is charity based called foulsham and bintree playgroup it would be nice to be able to support them when I streamed on Facebook they used to have a section where you could type the charity name in and it would find it because they are charity registered that was about the only good thing about streaming on Facebook

  10. Before all you "bully fans" go after me, I'm from a country where these dogs are banned for a good reason. Pits, bullys or whatever they're rebranded as this week are fighting dogs (not nanny dogs as some folks claim) they're bred to be violent. Just as retrievers will retrieve, pits will fight and attack. It's a proven fact. There are countless examples of them attacking other dogs, cats and children unprovoked, causing catastrophic harm.

    Any charity advocating for them should not be supported by Twitch's charity platform.

  11. The new fundraiser feature looks great, but it's missing a crucial feature for many events: the ability for multiple people to stream for the same campaign. Adding the ability to let other people (either by invite, members of your stream team, or open to anyone) stream for your campaign would make this feature a lot more useful for larger charity events on Twitch.

  12. Twitch's official Twitch Charity integration currently creates a Donate button that replaces the Subscribe button; however, viewers can still choose to Subscribe during these charity streams, and there's no mechanism for Bits to be used to donate.

    Twitch Charity is explicitly marketed as a way to avoid having to count Subs/Bits as part of the donation process, and yet Twitch Charity does not change this issue whatsoever. Streamers would still have to manually calculate their income from a charity stream and donate that amount (potentially having to wait for their next payout to be able to do so, in some…

  13. The creation of a Twitch Charity extension would enable streamers to add a panel to their "About Me" area which automatically displays the names of all the charities they have raised money for, the total amount raised for each one, and perhaps the date the fundraiser ended. This would be a wonderfully helpful feature!

    Thank you for letting us know. We definitely will look into this, as it should show on the charity tool in this case. I'll check back in with you as soon as we have an update. Thank you for your patience, and apologies for the inconvenience!

  15. There are many reputable indigenous charities, as well as others for mental health, homelessness, cancer, etc. that exist outside of America. Why not have all of those in the list? I refuse to fundraise for American charities as a non-American resident/citizen. Where's Australia's recognition? Where's NZ? UK? Europe? America just isn't that important to the rest of us...

  16. We should be able to create or use Charity Emotes but it not effect our existing emotes to our dashboard or streams. Basically additional emotes for the greater good. - AMP

  17. Allow streamers the ability to fundraise for multiple charities at the same time so viewers can choose 1 they personally can relate to that the streamer supports. As a charity streamer, I offer 6 charities as when I was rotating through someone asked me why they had to wait to donate & how they could donate immediately.

  19. Maybe I'm missing how to do it, but It seems that the Charity Button can only be seen on desktops/laptops but not on those viewing on their phones or tablets. We need to make it available everywhere.

  20. Assign a staff member to review the charities which are listed within the creator dashboard. While trying to do research into the charity i wanted to support, i realized many charities had dead URLs or Typos. We want to do good in our communities however it makes it a little difficult to trust the organizations listed when there are broken links and typos.
