BLACK N AMIMATED CHARITY STREAM-A-THON!
HELP US KEEP BLACK VOICES IN ANIMATION SHINING
Oct 11 2025 11:00 AM - 11:00 PM PST
WATCH + SUPPORT LIVE ON TWITCH.TV/BLACKNANIMATED

$BLACK N AMIMATED CHARITY STREAM-A-THON! Black N Animated has been a safe space and community hub for Black creatives in animation for years. Right now, these spaces are at risk - without support, programs may have to pause, social/ professional opportunities could disappear, and the community we've built could fracture. On Saturday, Oct 11 we're coming together for a 12-hour live Stream-a-Thon - some incredible friends of BNA will draw, chat, and share their work to help keep BNA alive. If you can, tune in, watch, share, or donate. Every bit helps ensure Black creatives have a place to create, connect, and be seen.$

Kody is one of the coolest people I know, & he and his partner are going through some tough times. You can help him out by sending some funds through ko-fi/patreon below, but if you cannot, sharing this post would also mean a lot
