Ludwig Announces Charity Streaming Event: Subathon 2.0
Last year, Ludwig set a record for subscriptions on Twitch during his Subathon. Now, the popular content creator has revealed plans for another event. However, this time it’s for a good cause. Instead of collecting subscribers for personal gain, Ludwig will be streaming to raise money for charity.
The Concept of Subathon 2.0
Ludwig took to Twitter to share the news, saying, “Subathon 2.0. Coming soon.” He explained that he has been contemplating how to organize another Subathon but didn’t want to endlessly extract money from his viewers. Instead, he wanted to create an event that would benefit charity while enhancing the overall content experience.
A Unique Setting for the Event
For Subathon 2.0, Ludwig will spend the entire 50-hour event inside a glass box at DreamHack Atlanta. What’s interesting is that the more money fans raise, the more “torture” Ludwig will endure during the stream.
Supporting Charities
The funds raised during the Subathon will be donated to No Kid Hungry and Alveus Sanctuary, which was founded by popular streamer Maya Higa. The event will take place from November 18 to 20. Fans who want to attend DreamHack Atlanta can use the code “Ludwig” to avail a 20% discount on their tickets, and 20% of the ticket profits using that code will also go to charity.
Ludwig aims to raise $100,000 during the 50-hour marathon, a goal that he is likely to surpass given his track record of success.
