Reinventing the Telethon for the Digital Generation

This has been one of the most difficult years in recent history around the globe, desperately catalyzing the need to support causes worldwide. Creators are leveraging their influence for good and social platforms are supporting them with new technologies and features. Major gamers, YouTube and TikTok stars like Jacksepticeye, Markiplier, DrLupo and Courage are joining Tiltify, the creator-first fundraising platform, to lead the evolution of social good in today’s social media landscape. Tiltify's CEO Michael Wasserman will be joined by Jacksepticeye and Alison Moore of Comic Relief US to highlight some of their biggest collaborations of 2020, as well as examine how creating more interactive, live and personalized experiences on social platforms make it easier than ever for the next generation of donors to support their favorite charities and causes worldwide.
