At Logitech, we strive to create an organization that is inclusive and diverse. That’s one of the reasons we take time throughout the year to focus on people of all types, and why we celebrate International Women’s Day.<\/span><\/p>\n

Last year, our gaming team hosted a 24-hour charity stream to raise money for <\/span>charity: water<\/span><\/a>. This year, we’ve built on that effort to create a week of streams that invites streamers and employees from across the company to share their passion.\u00a0 As the saying goes, you can\u2019t be what you can\u2019t see, and creating opportunities like this helps raise the visibility of women in the community .<\/span><\/p>\n

The streams, which will air the week of March 2, will raise funds for <\/span>charity: water<\/span><\/a>. charity:water’s aim is to bring clean and safe drinking water to developing countries improving health, education and opportunity. This is especially important for women and children, who spend a disproportionate amount of their time up to 40 billion hours a year, walking to collect clean water. Freeing up the time they’d typically spend finding water, allows them to pursue their education and economic opportunities they would otherwise go without, which benefits their entire community.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

All of the streams will be shared on Logitech G’s Twitch Page<\/a> and on Facebook and Twitter pages across the company. People will be able to donate money to charity:water<\/a> during the live stream, and Logitech will match the first $20,000 donated.<\/p>\n

Every donation makes a difference. A $40 donation will bring clean water to one person, $10,000 will bring clean water to a community. And if we hit our $40,000 goal, we\u2019ll be able to bring clean water to 4 communities.<\/span><\/p>\n

We\u2019ve added the schedule below so you can join us for this one-of-a-kind event. If you wish to make a donation to charity: water, please click <\/span>here<\/span><\/a> to donate; 100% of your contribution brings clean water to people in need.<\/span><\/p>\n

Help us celebrate diversity and donate to a worthy cause. Together, we can make change happen.<\/span><\/p>\n
