Roll for Good, an international community of tabletop roleplaying game enthusiasts, is gearing up to host a live-streamed TTRPG charity event on May 27-28. This exciting event aims to raise funds for ILGA World, an organization dedicated to advocating for LGBTQIA+ human rights. Join in the fun and support a worthy cause by participating in this one-of-a-kind gaming extravaganza.
Roll for Good’s charity event is all about using the power of tabletop roleplaying games to make a positive impact. By streaming roleplaying game sessions, they raise money for various charitable organizations. In the past, they have supported causes such as trans, non-binary, and gender-diverse youth-supporting charity Mermaids, food-providing nonprofit World Central Kitchen, and mental health organization Mind. Now, they are focused on championing LGBTQIA+ human rights through their partnership with ILGA World.
The Lineup
The event features an impressive lineup of TTRPG one-shot sessions, interviews, solo plays, and giveaways. Participants can look forward to exciting games like Thirsty Sword Lesbians, a wonderfully affirming Queer RPG created by April Kit Walsh. Grimdark fantasy adventure Mörk Borg will take players on a thrilling journey through a dark and mysterious world. Fans of Tales from the Loop will be delighted to explore the sequel, Things from the Flood, set in artist Simon Stålenhag‘s alt-history universe. Himbo Treasure Hunt and How To Be A Hero have also made the setlist. And of course, no TTRPG event would be complete without the presence of industry stalwart Dungeons & Dragons.
Making a Difference
Roll for Good prides itself on being an inclusive community that brings together people from diverse backgrounds. Their team includes volunteers who identify as queer, transgender, neurodivergent, people of color, women and femme, disabled, and intersectional. These passionate individuals come together to organize TTRPG streams and events, using their shared love for gaming to give back to the world and support causes close to their hearts.
The goal of Roll for Good’s May 2023 event is to raise funds for ILGA World, an organization that has been tirelessly working to advance LGBTQIA+ human rights since its inception in 1978. ILGA World operates across six major regions worldwide and is an approved consultant for the United Nations Economic and Social Council. By participating in the charity event, viewers can actively contribute to the global fight for justice, equity, and acceptance for all individuals, regardless of their sexual orientations, gender identities, gender expressions, or sex characteristics.
