Greetings all! I am 1204, founder of Gaming for Global Change, a community of charity-driven people, and head of ROBLOXathon, marathon livestreams of ROBLOX for charity. Recently, ROBLOXathon: Care, our 72 Hour Marathon for the American Red Cross, was promoted on the blog. As a result, we are hoping to make this marathon the best for all of the new viewers coming to watch.
ROBLOXathon is a marathon livestream of ROBLOX for the benefit of a charity. Every ROBLOXathon, we select a new charity to raise money and awareness for. During ROBLOXathon, we create fun incentives and punishments that you can donate towards, including making us eat crazy Foreign Food, Drink Hot Sauce and more live on camera. We also like to thank you for your donations, and give donation benefits including shoutouts, and moderatorship in our chatrooms. You could even join Gaming for Global Change's board! Through ROBLOXathon, Gaming for Global Change has been live for over 140 hours, and has cumulatively raised over $900 for 3 local and global charities.
We are now broadcasting our last ROBLOXathon of our first season, (December 2013-August 2014) and we would appreciate your help. Here's some more information about our next marathon.
ROBLOXathon: Wild is going to be a 48 hour Marathon Livestream of ROBLOX for the benefit of the World Wildlife Fund. We hope to raise $150 for this fantastic charity that strives to protect Earth's Wildlife for future generations, and you can help! ROBLOXathon: Wild begins on August 8th at 2:00PMCDT, and will run for 48 Hours straight to raise awareness and money for the World Wildlife Fund's cause, ending on August 10th at 2:00PMCDT.
We do of course know that not all people can donate at this current moment and time, however, we view sharing our cause as an equivalent to that! It would be very much appreciated before and during the marathon, you share us on your social media networks using #ROBLOXathonWild, so we can help many learn about the World Wildlife Fund's cause.
Tune into www.twitch.tv/1204xj818 on August 8th @ 2:00PMCDT to help us support the World Wildlife Fund.
Thanks for reading, and let's end the year going WILD! -1204xj818 Founder of Gaming For Global Change and Head of The ROBLOXathon Team

@ScootrBro
While I do have proof to back up this, I unfortunately cannot link it on ROBLOX, due to the charity fundraiser pages being considered "offsite links".
However, I suppose you could take the Channel of the Month shoutout we received for the Month of June for our 72 Hour Marathon which raised $600 as proof that we aren't scamming you. http://blog.roblox.com/2014/07/the-latest-and-greatest-in-roblox-gameplay-streaming/
Also, scamming through these methods is considered fraud and is a criminal offense. If we were frauding anyone, we wouldn't even be hosting this marathon.
Hope that helps any doubt in our marathon. Hope to see you there! |

Wow, amazing timing; the day after my one-week charity livestream ends! Looks like we can have 9 days of charity fundraising instead for 7.
Good luck! |

| I know you don't scam, but I don't want to watch it. However, I might donate if I can get my debit card reactivated in time. |
