On April 14, 2024, Twitch streamer Connor "CDawgVA" garnered attention on social media after raising more than $800,000 for charity during his Cyclethon stream. For those unaware, Cyclethon is a type of IRL livestream in which streamers ride a bicycle for a set distance. Some content creators use the opportunity to host philanthropic events and raise funds for charities. CDawgVA happened to do the same.
On the 14th day of the Cyclethon broadcast, Connor collaborated with Chris "Abroad in Japan" and YouTuber PremierTwo. At one point, the Welsh personality realized that his charitable efforts had raised more than $800,000. The trio took a short break to commemorate the occasion.
A few moments later, the professional anime voice actor observed that he had raised an additional $3,000 in just a few minutes. While expressing his gratitude to the contributors, CDawgVA said:
Connor was two-and-a-half hours into his Cyclethon stream earlier today (April 14, 2024) when he realized that his philanthropic endeavor had raised over $800,000. He then told Chris "Abroad in Japan" and PremierTwo to pull over to commemorate the achievement.
