bud_dreams to Host Dreamscape’s 2nd Holiday Charity Stream

bud_dreams: Charity Stream with Dreamscape Foundation, 12/20/20 1pm EST For many families, coming together means eliminating video games and electronics. For streamer Larry Green, video games have always been a huge part of bringing his family together. Green has been playing video games his whole life. He shared, “I grew up with my dad having a SEGA, and I talked him into buying an NES.” The two of them enjoyed playing together so much, that Green recalls his dad buying every single Madden game available.

Genetic Gaming Genes

The power and love of video games has continued with Green’s three children. “I can actually play [Fortnite] with my dad, my son, and my brother all at the same time,” he explained. His only daughter has even introduced him to games he wasn’t familiar with. Green said, “My daughter is into mobile games, especially Roblox. She has enlightened me.”

Green Keeps it Fresh

Green’s subscribers know that he likes to jump around to different games during his live streams. He explained, “I bebop around. I like variety. You have to have enjoyment out of it. If you are not engaged, your audience knows.” Green’s range is just one of the many reasons Dreamscape Foundation is ecstatic to partner with him for our upcoming charity stream.

First Charity Stream

Dreamscape Foundation is raising money for people with disabilities, and for Green this cause really hits home. He has chosen to do his first ever charity stream in honor of his own family members with disabilities.  Green shared, “My sister Kimberly, actually throughout her whole high school career until 3 years ago, did the Special Olympics. She has developmental delays.”  He explained that she was born premature with a heart that wasn’t fully developed.  His first cousin is also disabled due to brain damage from birth. Join the Dreamscape Foundation and twitch steamer Green this Sunday, December 20th, at 1pm EST for our live charity stream! We will be raising money to help better the lives of people struggling with physical disabilities. This holiday season, join us in making the world more accessible to individuals with disabilities.

Daltos To Host Dreamscape’s First Charity Stream of The Giving Season

Daltos To Host Dreamscape’s First Charity Stream of The Giving Season

Charity Stream with Dreamscape Foundation, 12/19/20 3PM EST at twitch.tv/daltos

Streamers are constantly obsessing over their numbers. To be dubbed a “successful streamer,” you need to acquire and keep a large number of viewers and subscribers, but for Nicholas Buccino there is one situation where the numbers become meaningless.

According to Buccino, better known as Daltos, the most important part of a charity stream is just the simple act of being able to help others. As an official member of the Yogscast for the past 3.5 years, Daltos said, “I am always participating. I love it. It’s the most proud thing I am about the Yogscast.”

Truly Altruistic

Daltos has always had the desire to help others since he was a young child. While on the bus ride home after school, Daltos noticed two kids playing a game. Daltos recalls, “one of them had early onset Parkinson’s and his hands shook uncontrollably. The other kid helped him play, and I thought that was really cool. I was like, ‘can I play with you guys? I want to help out, too.’”

In fact, Daltos credits these same two kids for getting him into video games. I believe I speak for many of us when I say we are happy for their friendship. Daltos not only streams himself playing his favorite strategy games, but he also streams using his natural gift to entertain by keeping his viewers engaged, laughing and smiling.

Away From Keyboard

When Daltos isn’t playing games, entertaining viewers on Just Chatting, or raising money for charities, his fans know he enjoys listening to music and eating good food. His subscribers might just catch him listening to Flogging Molly or find him enjoying his favorite afghan food at Kabab Paradise in New Jersey. Daltos explained, “I made friends with a guy whose uncle owned one of the best Afghani restaurants in New Jersey. Love it. Shout out, Ali!

As a former teacher with his Master’s Degree in Exercise Science, Daltos has a lot to offer and Dreamscape is beyond thrilled to partner with him to host a charity stream to help raise money for people with impairment disabilities. Join us this Saturday, December 19th, at 3 pm EST with the one, the only, Daltos!

It’s Party Time with BalenaProductions’ 5th Annual Charity Stream

It’s Party Time with BalenaProductions’ 5th Annual Charity Stream

BalenaProductions is back and ready for their 5th annual Dreamscape Foundation charity stream event! After crushing last year’s goal, Steve (Balena), Ron (Rigg3l), and Ted (ApocHedgie) are ready to make an even bigger impact this time around. Starting at 8pm (EST) on Sunday December 15th the team will be raising money for Toys for Tots and Friends of Foster Children Forever. With a whole lot planned, plus prizes and giveaways, it’s sure to be an all-out party….Mario Party that is!

Let’s Meet the Team

All long time gamers and friends, Steve, Ron, and Ted all got started on Twitch streaming their playthroughs of games. But what keeps them there today is all the possibilities a stream holds. Steve (Balena) being a natural foodie at heart, loves chatting with his viewers and having deep, heart felt conversation about food. While Ron (Rigg3l) on the other hand tends to go a little past just chatting in his streams. When asked about his favorite stream activities he had this to say, “Either playing competitive games or just playing rage inducing games and yelling about them”.  Definitely on the competitive side, Ron keeps his things interesting but it’s always in good fun. Ted (ApocHedgie) is a multiplayer kind of guy. Whether it’s hosting a server for a bunch of friends or just playing in a big group, Ted loves the social aspect of gaming. Aside from playing big group games, Ted also lets his viewers who donate choose his next game. Which isn’t always a good thing for him! “I love when people donate to make me play whatever game they want, most of the time they make me play horrible things that shouldn’t even exist, but sometimes you get a nice guy who just wants you to play something good for once”, said Ted. Lucky for Ted, during the stream the guys will be playing Mario Party on Gamecube. Playing as DK (Steve), Wario (Ron), and Waluigi (Ted) to battle it out for that first place win, things are bound to get heated!

How the Gang Got Together

Steve and Ron first met way back in the 4th grade and have been friends ever since. Together they started their own Youtube channel (BalenaProductions) and began making videos. Using animations and voiceovers of their favorite characters, primarily Sonic the Hedgehog, they created dozens of short clips for fun. As their channel grew and grew, they knew they needed to step up their content. Steve set out trying to find some new animations and mods, and in 2012 met Ted. As Ted put it, “he had some high quality standards for videos”, but once Steve saw what he could do, they began working together on some videos. While working on the videos, they started becoming friends more than colleagues. Eventually, Steve introduced Ted to Ron and the rest of their friends. At that time, Steve and Ron had switched from making episodes of their popular Youtube show Pixel Brains and began streaming them live on Twitch. According to Ted, “when they started doing PixelBrains streams instead of episodes, I was occasionally invited (more and more) to co-host with them”. They had a blast streaming together, and “since then Ted has been a very regular guest on Pixel Brains” said Ron. Fast forward 7 plus years later and the group is still going strong!

Every Little Bit Helps

We all know there are people out there who are not as fortunate as some of us. The right thing to do is help out when you can to give them hope and a chance at changing things for the better.  This is just another thought these friends have in common. Over the years, Steve has partnered with the Dreamscape Foundation and other nonprofits time and time again. This year, in the 5th annual Dreamscape stream he is looking forward to lending a helping hand while having a ton of fun. As a charity stream veteran, he had a message for other streamers thinking of giving it a shot, saying “Every little bit helps”! This simple sentence has some powerful meaning. Too many times streamers are afraid their stream won’t raise enough to matter. But it isn’t all about the amount raised! Spreading the word and educating people on the cause you’re supporting is enough in itself. Alongside Steve in past Dreamscape charity streams, Ron is a big supporter of volunteering as well. While most of his work has been in support of the Dreamscape Foundation, he has also gone outside the realm of e-based volunteering. When he was still in school, Ron had the opportunity to take part in helping out his local community. He and a group worked to help clean up trash and litter in parks around their area. Now ready for the next charity stream Ron had some final words to share, “Never stop believing in yourself. Each day brings new challenges, try your best to overcome them and never be afraid to ask for help along the way”! Despite what life throws at you, there is always hope and a way to overcome the obstacles. Similarly to his partners, Ted has been a constant supporter and volunteer for the Dreamscape Foundation charity streams. But before they began streaming, he still did his fair share to give back. He knows how important local organizations and their programs are to the communities they serve. Their only purpose is to help those who need it, but without outside support they won’t get much accomplished. That’s why Ted has volunteered multiple times to help local charities with anything he could. From shipping and receiving, to freshness tracking of food items, he was up for anything they needed him to do. Going into this year’s charity stream, he is looking forward to not only helping those in need, but being a role model to other streamers looking to do the same. It’s not hard to do, “just get out there and do it! Find a charity you like, advertise as best you can and try to raise some money and awareness for your favorite charity! Every bit counts, so don’t get discouraged if you can’t raise a million bucks”!

The 5th Annual Dreamscape Charity Stream

Keeping the tradition alive for the 5th consecutive year, Balena Productions is back at it again! Coming together to support the Salvation Army’s Toys for Tots and Friends of Foster Children Forever, they are looking to demolish last year’s results. Prizes, giveaways, and great games are on deck for this event with an epic Mario Party battle being the forefront. The smack talking has already begun with Ted feeling real confident in his Waluigi skills and getting Ron as flustered as possible after each win! Will Ron make Ted eat those words? Or will Steve, keeping quiet, come out and surprise them both. To find out and see all the other fun ideas they have planned, make sure you tune in this Sunday December 15th beginning at 8pm!

24-Hours of Splucy: Dreamscape’s Next Charity Stream

24-Hours of Splucy: Dreamscape’s Next Charity Stream

Dreamscape Foundation is proud to announce its next upcoming Charity Stream event! Partnering up with us this time around is Twitch Streamer Splucy (AKA Lucy), who will be putting on an incredible 24-hour stream! Complete with prizes and fun incentives, Lucy is ready to not only support those in need, but to do something extra for her community and put on a stream they’ll love. Now before we dive into the event details, let’s take a minute to find out where the Splucy channel began.

How Lucy became Splucy

Lucy began her streaming career on Youtube not knowing much, if anything, about what she was doing. After a while, she saw a longtime friend post about Twitch and decided to check it out. After asking her friend about it, he encouraged her to try it and helped answer all her questions. So, she jumped right into it, not know what to expect and the Splucy Twitch Channel was born.  Fast forward 8 short months later, Lucy’s channel is booming! So much so, it led her to making the decision of her life. Lucy recently decided to leave her day job to follow her heart and passion and on November 1st became a fulltime Twitch Streamer! Now as a fulltime Streamer, Lucy is looking to kick things up a notch and take her production to the next level. With an active and constantly growing community, she is always changing things up, doing new and exciting streams. For example, being from beautiful Australia, Lucy recently put on a mobile beach day stream with her pup Balto. Whether she is gaming or Just Chatting, Lucy loves interacting with her community and making it a place people feel at home. To her, the social aspect that you can mix with gaming is what makes streaming worth it.

Another chance to give back to those in need

While fulltime streaming may be new to Lucy, fundraising and volunteering are anything but. In the past, she has worked with a few organizations to help any way she could. From preparing meals for and playing games/socializing with the elderly to event planning, social media management and photography for a local parish, she has done it all. When asked why she does it, her response was simple, “it’s just a good feeling”. To elaborate, knowing that her actions can help and make a difference to someone in need is reward enough. But her volunteer efforts don’t end there! Last June, she brought her fundraising to Twitch for the first time to raise money for the Children’s Hospital Foundation. Now, Lucy is ready to do it again! This time for the Dreamscape Foundation’s Holiday Giving Campaigns, supporting families and children in need throughout the holiday season. Beginning on Saturday November 30th at 7am EST (8pm AWST), Splucy will be kicking off the 24-hour Charity Stream event! Regardless of what you typically watch on stream, she has a variety of things planned that you’re sure to love. Bouncing back and forth between gaming and Just Chatting, Splucy will be playing an assortment of games ranging from chill and easy going to ones that will have you (and/or her) jumping out of your seat in terror and excitement. Additionally, she won’t be going through it all alone. Throughout the 24 hours Splucy will be joined by other streamers she knows for some group chats and discussions. With a whole lot more planned, it should be an event everyone can enjoy. But what would a Dreamscape Charity Stream be without some amazing gifts and prizes for you to win! All donations will be rewarded with thank you gifts including Dreamscape T-shirts, Steam Keys, Overwatch Sticker sets and Overwatch Heroes Fleece Blankets. But wait… There’s more! Each donation tier also includes entries into our 2 raffle drawings. With the smaller prize being a $50 Amazon gift card and the grand prize of a $100 Amazon gift card!   The Holiday/Giving Season has officially begun and we hope you all will tune in this Saturday November 30th to get things started right! We encourage everyone to join and Lucy is especially excited to share this event with her community and all new comers! Regardless of your ability to donate, anyone is welcome and there will be something for everyone to enjoy! To keep up with Lucy and the event, you can follow Splucy’s Twitch Channel, Instagram, Twitter and Youtube. To donate, please click and follow our Tiltify Page. We hope to see you all there to join us in Sharing the Dream!
