Kong-O-Thon 24hr Marathon Fundraiser

[synthchemist]

G'day from Oz Everyone,

I'll be doing a live stream for 24hrs straight from Netherworld in Brisbane on the 15th and 16th of November.

It's a fundraising event for a charity here in Australia called Headspace which aims to help kids with their mental health. They're a fantastic organisation and service 138 communities across Australia.

If you could tune in on at twitch.tv/netherworldarcade I would greatly appreciate it as I'll need the support, particularly in the early hours of the morning.

Also if you have a spare few dollary-doos laying around and would like to support the cause please do so at https://www.mycause.com.au/page/270512/kongothon

Hoping to see all of you there!

Cheers!

Looks like we are live! Hope everyone can tune in at some point and show their support

Almost at $2k... cmon Kong-ians, let's blow this out of the water for mental health, and we all know if there was ever a need for mental health it would be in the Kong community!

8 hours in and Aaron hits a new PB of 412k!
Also sitting at just over $3000 in donations which is EPIC.

Everyone get in there and show your support, even if it means leaving the stream up on your PC/phone while you're busy/asleep

It's over! An amazing AUD$7,290 raised at this time with some after stream donations still rolling in. What an absolutely amazing community.

He also beat his PB twice in process! How good

It's great to see so much positivity in the community.
