VTuber Amelia Watson Raises Over $200k for Charity in Record Time

Amelia Watson's Best Friends Animal Society charity stream

 

English-language Hololive star Amelia Watson set out to raise funds for homeless animals — and thanks to her loyal fans, the Sherlock-themed VTuber succeeded beyond her wildest dreams!

 

Yesterday's 9-hour charity stream was held for the benefit of Best Friends Animal Society, a charity maintaining no-kill shelters for homeless pets and helping them find homes. Fans blasted through Amelia's initial $50,000 goal in three minutes — within literal moments of the stream beginning.

 

"You guys ruined it!" Amelia shouted joyfully, commenting on plans for the stream that included games, special events, and a cool meter that would go up as goals were passed. The stream went on with a new goal of $100k — which was achieved in 30 minutes.

 

 

 

 

Overall, Amelia and her fans raised more than $235,000 for Best Friends, according to the fundraiser's Tiltify page. The page also indicates an even earlier original goal of $15,000, as well as milestone rewards like voice packs, horror game streams, and song covers.

 

The VOD of the 9-hour stream is up on YouTube, so you can go back and watch Amelia sing live, interact with chat, and dive into video games like Overwatch and Minecraft.
