Riot Games has today announced an upcoming charity stream with UK content creator Aaron ‘GaGOD’ Storey to celebrate the launch of Valorant on PS5 and Xbox Series S|X in aid of Make-a-Wish UK.
The stream will take place on October 29th at 13:00 GMT and will feature raffles of exclusive Riot prizes.
One of the prizes is a custom painted Xbox Series X by artist CamCreates which resembles the Valorant spike.
Killjoy and Reyna figurines, and Real Life Gun Buddies alongside a whole host of other Riot Games goodies will also be up for grabs.
The stream aims to raise funds to grant once-in-a-lifetime wishes to children and young people living with a critical condition for Make-a-Wish UK.
Riot Games will be matching donations up to £5,000 in aid of Make-a-Wish UK’s important work.
“We’re incredibly grateful to Riot Games for their phenomenal support through the charity stream and raffle in aid of Make-A-Wish UK,” said Jason Suckley, Chief Executive at Make-A-Wish UK.
“Every child deserves to wish for more than a life defined by illness.
“Gaming is a lifeline for children undergoing treatment and unable to attend school or clubs with their friends. It allows children to leave behind the everyday realities of their condition, bringing entertainment, connection and achievement into their lives.”
Jason Suckley, Make-A-Wish UK
“A growing number of our wishes are gaming focused, and we know these gaming related wishes have a hugely positive impact on improving a young person’s mental health at a time when they need it the most.
“The generous support we’ve received from Riot Games will help us to grant even more wishes, sooner.”
Riot Games has donated the following prizes, which will be raffled on October 29th during the live stream at https://www.twitch.tv/GaGod and donations can be made via this Tiltify link:
