Not to sound critical but gaming to raise money when you won't get the viewers needed to raise the money is just selfish. If you wanted to try and earn the funds there are many other ways. But I wish you best of luck!

Are you trolling? He is not a twitch partner he will make no money. The funds if any will go straight to St Jude not to him as an intermediary. There is nothing selfish about this.

If he really wanted to make a difference though he would do something besides playing a video game to raise money, because in all reality unless you become super famous/viral over night it will be hard to pull fans in. His efforts could be set elsewhere if he was really dead-set on raising money for St. Jude's hospital. Don't take my post as a negative I am just putting out my two cents.

You are over analyzing this to an extreme. It's just a guy streaming on twitch with a donation link to St Jude.

If this guy really wanted his two cents to help he should donate them to St Jude.

will all the money twitch gives you for the viewers and potential subscribers gained during this venture also go to st.jude's? that would include any subscribers retained after your promotional series due to luring people in under the auspices of charity.

No donations to his twitch. He said very specifically that he would have a link DIRECTLY to the St. Jude's website.

and the followers and subscribers he gets because of the fundraiser...will that be donated as well? that is the question, and even though you got on your soap box, you still havent answered the question.

You have to be a partner to get cash for subs and views. Your point is moot.

Hey while this is awesome to do, its kinda hard to get viewers and make them stay when your stream is all black when you start playing!

It's an admirable undertaking. I think you'd do well to come up with a theme that makes you a unique streamer though. If you're not a LoL god then you usually need a bit of style or flavor that makes you worth watching. More viewers means more people likely to donate.

This mght be a really stupid question, but what is St Jude?

St Jude Childrens Research Hospital.

they are a "chain" (for lack of a better word) of childrens hospitals all around the United States. they also do research, finding cures for cancer and such, and are known for taking in children with life-threatening diseases. Im pretty sure its a non-profit, and relies on donations to pay for doctors/nurses/researchers/etc.
