24 Hour Gaming Marathon For Autism Awareness · 7 March 2017

The National Autistic Society is here to transform lives, change attitudes and create a society that works for autistic people. There is still so much to do to increase opportunities, reduce social isolation and build a brighter future for autistic people. With your help, we can make it happen.

Story

I along with at least 1 other friend will be doing a 24 hours gaming marathon in aid of Autism awareness. This is my second fundraiser in as many years and will be streamed for the whole 24 hours for everybody to see. Most think this is fun but after last year I can certainly tell you staying awake for 24 hours is not easy. However, I will be taking regular breaks every 4 hours to eat and hydrate and to limber up my body as 24 hours solid gaming is dangerous. This is after all for charity and shall be done in a safe way. This worked last time and will be done again. After the event, the whole 24 hours shall hopefully be uploaded to youtube for everybody to watch. 

I am doing this because I have 2 Autistic sons and believe I too am Autistic. I love them to bits and wouldn't change them for the world but I believe some parents need help with Autistic children so I do this in aid of them. That's where your donations will go. The National Autistic Society helps out families who need help and that's exactly what your donation is going to do, help families cope with Autistic children as some parent really find it hard. So please give what you can and give me a watch. 

I also invite you to come along and game! I totally accept gatecrashers online and friends to join in the gaming fun even if it's just for a quick game. The date is the 8th of March. I will be streaming on twitch at this link https://www.twitch.tv/riggames.
