Guerrilla Collective will also be driving donations toward three charities throughout each broadcast over the weekend. These charities are:

  • NAACP – The mission of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP) is to secure the political, educational, social and economic equality of rights in order to eliminate race-based discrimination and ensure the health and well-being of all persons.
  • UNICEF – As the number of COVID-19 cases soars, so do the needs of children and their families. From delivering life-saving health supplies, to building water and hygiene facilities, to keeping girls and boys connected to education and protection, UNICEF is working to slow the spread of COVID-19 and minimize its impact on children worldwide.
  • Gameheads – Based out of Oakland, Calif., Gameheads uses video game design, development and DevOps to engage, prepare and train low-income youth and youth of color ages 15-24 in the Bay Area for careers in the tech and video game industries.
