The Charity Button Shouldn't Replace The Subscription Button. I am not in the closed beta of the new charity feature so I am going by what I have seen in Twitter posts and streams so far.
From what I gathered when a charity stream is active, the subscription button is replaced by a donate type button for the charity. I do not mind this at all BUT I would love to see the donate button AND subscription button be both present on a channel.
I asked this because some people doing charities use subs as a goal for different gimmicks for the stream as well as donation goals…

Include some non-US based charities All of the charities available are US-based. It might be worth branching out since Twitch is used worldwide.
We'll be fundraising for the NSPCC but can't use the Twitch functions for it as it's a UK based charity.

Endometriosis Endometriosis is a women's disease that needs to be more widely known which should be discussed that's why I think this is an important charity to be added to Twitch. 1 in 10 women has it, but how much it affects them differs greatly. More research is needed as to the causes and treatment for this disease, because much is unknown. Extreme menstrual pain is not normal. And not only menstruation problems but also infertility, miscarriages and chronic pain. It can have a huge impact on a woman's life.

Charity Specific Accounts & Charity Tools 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.
