Kiwi YouTubers are gearing up for this weekend’s Kiwi-Cast, a livestream that’s aiming to raise funds for New Zealand’s Youthline.

Youthline is a national telephone counselling helpline run by youth, for you. The service is based in 11 local centres around New Zealand and enlists 1100 volunteers nationwide.

Beginning at 12noon NZST on 11 June, the livestream will run for a full 24 hours. The livestream will feature a variety of New Zealand YouTubers, gaming tournaments and prizes to those watching and donating.

For more information on Kiwi-Cast, head over to the event’s official website.

Better yet, you can head here to donate to the cause now.

Steve's the owner and Editor-in-Chief of Stevivor.com, the country’s leading independent video games outlet. Steve arrived in Australia back in 2001 on what was meant to be a three-month working holiday before deciding to emigrate and, eventually, becoming a citizen.

Stevivor is a combination of ‘Steve’ and ‘Survivor’, which made more sense back in 2001 when Jeff Probst was up in Queensland. The site started as Steve’s travel blog before transitioning over into video games.

Aside from video games, Steve has interests in hockey and Star Trek, playing the former and helping to cover video games about the latter on TrekMovie.com. By day, Steve works as the communications manager of the peak body representing Victorians as they age.
