“If I could pay for a week of food for a family that would make me happy.”

The streamer is going to be donating five cents for every like and share of his posts that feature him playing video games until the end of April.

“Five cents doesn’t seem like a lot but it could work up to a decent amount of money,” said St.Onge.

Since COVID-19 protocols are limiting social interaction, St.Onge is finding he has plenty of extra time to spend on his computer, and now it’s for a good cause.
