4. Von Hippel-Lindau - VHL Alliance

8. Little Victories Animal Shelter

   This charity is also a place I work at when I'm not streaming. It is the sole non kill animal shelter in the area, and takes wonderful care of the animals it houses, while trying to find them forever homes. Since I've started two weeks ago, I've seen 6 adoptions that have been handled so well. I love seeing the animals be treated well and taken care of in such a good way. It's a great mission - inspired by the founder's dog passing and her taking in a dog and caring for it and finding it a good home. She considered each rehoming a "little victory" - hence the name.

11. Sickle Cell Disease Association of America

    Sickle Cell Disease Association of America, Inc. (SCDAA)
    Website: https://www.sicklecelldisease.org/
    Country: United States

    The Mission of SCDAA is to advocate for people affected by sickle cell conditions and empower community-based organizations to maximize quality of life and raise public consciousness while advancing the search for a universal cure.

    Sickle cell anemia is one of a group of inherited disorders known as sickle cell disease. It affects the shape of red blood cells, which carry oxygen to all parts of the body.

    Red blood cells are usually round and flexible, so they move easily through blood vessels. In sickle cell anemia, some red blood cells are shaped like sickles or crescent moons. These sickle cells also become rigid and sticky, which can slow or block blood flow.

    There's no cure for most people with sickle cell anemia. Treatments can relieve pain and help prevent complications associated with the disease.

    Together, we can make a difference in the lives of those who are affected by sickle cell disease!

    Your tax-deductible donation to SCDAA will assist us in providing critical support services throughout the country at our 50+ chapters and affiliates. You also will help us raise vital funding for research that can advance new treatment options and ultimately find a universal cure.

13. The Cure Starts Now/Nerf Cancer

    The Cure Starts Now / Nerf Cancer - US/Australia

    The Cure Starts Now represents something truly different – a grassroots effort dedicated to, not just fighting one cancer, but the elimination of ALL cancers. We believe as the experts do; that in order to truly cure cancer you have to focus on: those cancers that are immune to treatment, those cancers that also affect children, and those cancers that are the biggest bullies with the highest death rate

    We call this the Homerun Cure, but the idea isn’t new. As a matter of fact, this Homerun strategy dates back to the early 1900’s when bold advances in cancer research were made, leading to the invention of surgical efforts, radiation and finally chemotherapy. But the advancements stopped, leaving many patients behind without hope of survival. Resources were prioritized for those cancers that affected the most people rather than those we could learn the most from, and the focus shifted from cures to treatments.

    Nerf Cancer is our Twitch Streaming Campaign.

    Websites are: https://thecurestartsnow.org/ & https://nerfcancer.org/.

18. NorCal AIDS Cycle

    The NorCal AIDS Cycle or NCAC (a US, California based 501(c)(3) charitable organization) benefits some of the most in-need HIV/AIDS outreach efforts throughout Northern California. The organization has no paid employees and their largest fundraiser, their annual cycling event, is 100% volunteer supported. Since 2005 the organization has, through mostly grassroots fundraising efforts, raised millions of dollars to support HIV/AIDS outreach and education services throughout Northern California supporting mostly organizations in rural or otherwise underserved areas. For example, grants from the NCAC reopened the Nevada County testing program and has continued to be the primary funding source sustaining it among other notable accomplishments. These funds are desperately needed in those underserved communities to continue providing the services that are still required to fight the spread of HIV and help those currently living with it. It would be a tremendous help to be able to conduct fundraisers with this integrated Twitch support and we would be honored to be listed as a charity in that regard. For more information please stop by norcalaidscycle.org

    To close, here is our official mission statement:
