Riot Games will help Special Olympics host a streaming event

Riot Games is partnering with Special Olympics to help host an event on Twitch, the Special Olympics Live Stream-a-Thon. It will take place today at 11 a.m. Pacific. You can watch it here.

Riot Games will help with “its passionate player base of 100 million-plus gamers, access to creators and streamers, and the production expertise of its staff to help spread the word.” The League of Legends developer has had internal issues recently with accusations of sexism and a negative work culture.
