Kick Co-Founder pledges $5,000 for PTSD Charity Event

In the world of online streaming, where loyalty is measured in subs and every click could theoretically pay the rent, Edward Craven, co-founder of Kick, just casually threw $500 in gifted subs at a PTSD awareness stream. And no, he didn’t just stop there. Kick itself has pledged another $5,000 to support Regiment's PTSD awareness tournament, aimed at helping military service members and veterans. You know, because apparently, they're the platform with both a big heart and a big wallet.

For the uninitiated, this isn't your typical small-fry streamer throwing free subscriptions at the masses like a kid with candy on Halloween. No, this is the co-founder of the platform itself—who, let’s be honest, could probably have made it rain with real cash but opted for some sweet, sweet gifted subs instead. RegimentGG, the veteran support organiaation benefiting from this, has expressed its full appreciation on X (formerly Twitter), hailing Kick and its founder's contributions as "insane support." And really, isn’t that the kind of unfiltered enthusiasm we all want from a partnership?

In a streaming landscape filled with endless fundraising pleas, Craven’s donation is a refreshing reminder that sometimes, yes, someone in charge does actually care. Or at least, they’re ready to put a few dollars where their subs are. Here's to hoping Kick keeps it coming—because apparently, there’s nothing quite like cold, hard digital cash to make a real-world difference.
