Happy PRIDE Month everyone!
Last year around this time, we were stuck inside and I got creative by creating videos where my CHEER self would explain CHEER Seattle and GenPride to a cosplay character. I raised funds on Facebook and it was a lot of fun.
This year, I've become a live streamer and I will be raising funds for CHEER Seattle all month long in all of my streams: https://streamlabscharity.com/@jerikandra/jerikandras-cheer-seattle-pride-fundraiser
CHEER Seattle is a volunteer-led adult cheer team that not only provides a safe and athletic environment for adults to practice and cheer but by doing so, we raise funds for local organizations in our community, usually LGBT related.
Our beneficiary this year is GenPride, an organization that puts on programs (and soon a retirement center) for LGBT seniors.
How do we do what we do? Well we meet and practice regularly all season long and we get 'hired' to cheer and perform for running events, sports events, auction events, etc. By doing so, we raise funds for the community.
So excited to be raising donations for CHEER Seattle this year AND I'm pledging that all of my funds from bits and subscriptions on twitch this month will also get donated!
Thanks for being a part of the Jerikandra Clan-dra. I hope you'll come hang out on twitch this month for PRIDE! http://twitch.tv/jerikandra
