StreamElements Launches The Creator Diversity Fund

StreamElements has officially launched The Creator Diversity Fund, which will be divided among 20 applicants from around the world who will receive around $5,000 each in custom graphics and services, and is designed to reach the Black and LGBTQ communities as well as women, people of color and individuals who have disabilities, according to the Hollywood Reporter.

“The challenges surrounding underrepresented groups have been prevalent for a long time, whether it’s dealing with sexism, racism, or other forms of prejudice,” Doron Nir, CEO of StreamElements said, per the report.

“Although livestreaming is a very nascent industry, it provides the same hurdles for members of these groups. While our tools and services are free to use, our team also builds high impact custom graphics for many of the top creators in the industry which enables their channels to stand out.”

“It is this level of production, design, and service we will be using to elevate the aesthetics and engagement of creators aspiring to be among those at the top, but are facing more adversity getting there.”

If you want to get involved, the deadline to do so is August 14th as winners will be notified on August 31st. You can get more information right here.
