Gamers provide medical support to flood victims in Ctg

A humanitarian campaign titled “Revive Squad" has brought together Bangladesh’s PUBG MOBILE streaming community to provide emergency medical assistance and raise relief funds for flood-affected people in Chattogram, in collaboration with social welfare organisation Footsteps Bangladesh.

Recent heavy rainfall and flash floods inundated several areas of the region, leaving hundreds of families in urgent need of food, safe drinking water and emergency healthcare services, said a press release.

In response to the humanitarian crisis, PUBG MOBILE streamers and gaming content creators from across Bangladesh came together to support those affected.

It also said recently more than 500 flood-affected people received free medical consultations, essential medicines, oral rehydration saline (ORS), and first-aid kits through the camps.

As part of the initiative, some of the country’s most popular PUBG MOBILE streamers and gaming content creators–Sinister, Rowdy, DeathStorm, TimeBurner Gaming, Tuktuki, Nayeem, Rafsan The Chotobhai, and Apollo Gaming hosted a special fundraising livestream.

Through their online platforms, the streamers called on their viewers and followers to come forward in support of flood-affected families. All proceeds generated through the livestream were donated directly to the flood relief fund.

They expressed hope that the initiative would encourage greater participation from young people, streamers and online communities in future social and humanitarian activities.
