Episode 19 - Lomadiah + Charity(?)

In this episode, the hosts interview Lomadiah - Hannah Rutherford (She/Her). A Twitch ambassador and content creator with a focus on charity work. They discuss the challenges and opportunities of fundraising for charity as a content creator, touching on the importance of choosing the right time to fundraise, the use of fundraising tools like Tiltify, what games to choose, rewards and crowd control. With a need for better communication between charities and creators. 

 

They talk about the importance of effective communication with sponsors and the need for understanding and support during life events.
