deadmau5 JOINS FRAITES AND PROFESSIONAL GAMERS, HALIFAX AND HAMBINOOO, FOR A LIVE STREAM EVENT ON PLAYERUNKNOWN’S BATTLEGROUNDS (PUBG)
1 IN 4 CHILDREN AT RISK OF GOING HUNGRY THIS YEAR DUE TO COVID-19 FALLOUT
STREAMS LIVE ON WEDNESDAY, JUNE 24 FROM 12-4 PM PT / 3-7 PM ET VIA THE PLAY WITH PUBG TWITCH CHANNEL: https://www.twitch.tv/playwithpubg
Jeremiah Fraites, co-founder of 2x GRAMMY Award-nominees, The Lumineers, has announced GAMING 2 GIVE BACK. International music icons, Fraites and deadmau5, will squad up for the first time with professional gamers, Halifax and Hambinooo, in a live stream gaming event created in conjunction with PUBG Corporation, the developers of PLAYERUNKNOWN’S BATTLEGROUNDS (PUBG). Activist Artists Management and PUBG Corporation are co-producing the live stream event, which will be held Wednesday, June 24 from 12-4 PT/ 3-7 pm ET, on the Play With PUBG Twitch Channel here: https://www.twitch.tv/playwithpubg.
All proceeds from GAMING 2 GIVE BACK will benefit the No Kid Hungry campaign to end child hunger in America, with PUBG Corporation donating $1.00 USD for every unique viewer (up to $100,000 USD) across the broadcast. According to No Kid Hungry, one in four children in the U.S. could face hunger this year because of the coronavirus. Every $1.00 USD donation provide up to ten meals to children in need across the country.
Speaking about the inspiration behind the event, Fraites said,
“During these especially challenging times, we must remember that children should not need to provide for themselves. As a father, the mission of No Kid Hungry is one that resonates deeply with me. This event is a great way to help the children most in need of our support and will hopefully inspire others to give back as well.”
Fraites is giving fans even more reason to tune in, with the debut of his new single on Dualtone Records, “Player Unknown.” The song will be exclusively released during GAMING 2 GIVE BACK before it’s made available on all digital service providers and music streaming services on Wednesday, June 24. Proceeds from Fraites’ single will be donated to No Kid Hungry. PUBG Corporation will be licensing “Player Unknown” from Fraites for promotion of the event and donating the proceeds to No Kid Hungry.
Fraites is partnering with Razer for the event, the leading global lifestyle brand for gamers and Intel. In support of the charity stream, Razer will be giving away a Razer Blade 15 gaming laptop, equipped with an Intel Core i7 processor, during the event. Event sponsor, Grubhub, will be providing viewers with a code for $5 off any order on the day of the stream so that they can support local restaurants and save on the food they love without missing any of the action.
