On October 12th, at noon, I will be beginning a 24-hour speedsolving marathon, live-streamed on Twitch, to raise donations for Loudoun County Animal Services (LCAS), my local animal shelter.
I've been to the shelter numerous times. All of the employees care deeply for the wellbeing of the animals there, but they often lack sufficient government funding to support everything the animals need—such as medical bills, food/hygiene supplies, toys and other things to keep the animals happy, etc. As somebody who loves animals myself, I decided to set up this event for their benefit.
As stated above, this event will take place on October 12th, at 12 pm noon (EST), and will last until 12 pm October 13th. I'll kick off the livestream at the animal shelter itself, and stay there for a few hours before heading home for the majority of the event. I'm planning to have some guests come by my house at some point, family friends, who will talk about their pets for a bit and perhaps even bring them.
100% of donations go directly to an organization called Friends of Loudoun County Animal Services. This guarantees that all of the donations go directly to the shelter.
In addition, for every $10 you donate, your name will be entered once into a raffle for a MF9 9x9x9 cube, or a few other prices to be decided
Donations are open now, and will be until at least the end of the event. You can donate here: https://donorbox.org/rubik
If you would like to watch livestream once it starts, it will be here:
