Michael just had his wish to meet @27vladdyjr granted! He attended batting practice, had his glove signed & threw the 1st ceremonial pitch at the game with 30k people cheering him on. A BIG thank you to the @BlueJays for making this happen. The smile on Michael’s face says it all

Born with a heart condition that makes physical activities difficult, Ayrielle was just 10 when she wished to meet her favourite YouTubers, Stephen & Mal. "The best part since has been the constant support from Stephen, Mal and their YouTube/Twitch community."

Robyn, this is an incredible achievement! We're honoured that you chose to give back to Make-A-Wish. Setting a $500 goal and surpassing $3,000 is truly inspiring! Your success is a testament to the power of charity streaming. We’re so grateful and can’t wait to share your story!
IT'S FINALLY OVER!
What a crazy month it has been indeed, I initially thought of making the goal $500, but was told to aim for my stretch goal of $1000, well we smashed it out of the park on this one!
- $3035.41 USD/$4342.19 CAD Raised for @MakeAWishCA
- 30 Days of streams
- 161.5 Hours streamed
- 2000+ Watch hours across all platforms
- First ever 24hr stream completed
Was such an incredible experience being able to make this sort of impact across my platforms with the help of EVERYONE, whether you donated money, or you donated your time by hanging out in the stream, reposting or even just liking any of my tweets during this event. None of it goes unnoticed and I cannot thank all of you enough.
Thank you all 💙🤍
