What do you get when thousands of streamers join together at Christmas?

A ho ho whole lotta cash for charity.

It’s not a cracker joke, this is Jingle Jam - the world’s biggest charity streaming event. Jingle Jam brings together streamers across the globe for an epic event running from the 1st to the 14th December, all to raise cash for charity.

Since it kicked off, Jingle Jam’s raised over £21 million for some incredible causes. And guess what? CALM is lucky enough to be one of them this year.

You can be part of this legendary event and take a stand against suicide by doing your very own Jingle Jam stream for CALM.

Involve your community

Boost donations by getting fellow streamers and gamers involved on your Tiltify fundraising page.

POLLS: Put the power in the hands of your community by setting up a donation poll to decide what you do on-stream. It could result in a different hairstyle, in-game decision, or forfeit like consuming some 'delicious' food.

REWARDS: Incentivise your community by offering them something when they individually donate a specified amount to your campaign. These could be virtual (doing a one-minute dance on-stream) or IRL (posting out a sticker or T-shirt). Just make sure it's something you know your community will love.

MILESTONES: Bring attention to certain points of progress on your fundraising journey. You can celebrate 50% of your goal by eating hot sauce or singing a show tune - or, set milestone goals at multiple intervals so they can act as stepping stones towards your ultimate goal. Milestones are an easy way to bring hype and attention to your community as you climb to the top of your goal.
