Charity live streaming is big on Twitch, and some of your favorite Survivor castaways will come to support a Hearts of Reality 24-hour event.
There are more Survivor players that are into gaming than you think. Ken Hoang is a professional Smash Bros. Melee player, Mari Takahashi is a gaming personality with Smosh Games and Peih-Gee loves to play League of Legends like no other. Still, most of the time there isn’t much of a crossover between reality contestants and the world of gaming. Until now!
Hearts of Reality has brought reality show contestants together from multiple properties in order to support great causes, running a number of events. Specifically, Survivor players such as Dr. Mike and Joe Mena from Heroes vs. Healers vs. Hustlers, as well as Jonny Fairplay, will join Simplicity in taking part of a 24-hour live stream charity event, benefitting Give Kids the World.
Taking place on Friday, June 22 from 3 p.m. to 9 p.m., the castaways will be streaming alongside established entities on Twitch.tv; a platform where people play video games for an audience to enjoy, as well as interact. As the latency is low, people are making comments in almost real time, allowing for more interactivity with the people playing games.
Those who have a Twitter account can like and retweet the embedded tweet above and enter in a contest to earn a $50 item from Into The AM; a digital outlet that makes handcrafted apparel.

As there are multiple people involved in this Survivor streaming event, it will be interesting to see what kinds of games will be played. Hopefully, we can see some Jack Box Party Pack games that sees audience interaction, as those who don’t live in New York, Los Angeles, Boston or Reno rarely have the chance to interact with castaways from the show.
