Story

Thanks for checking out my donation page!

In memory of Peter Benjamin Smith's passing on 30th May, 2016 I am intending to raise funds for Bears Of Hope Pregnancy & Infant Loss Support. This charity was chosen for their invaluable support during the traumatic event to Pete's parents 


I'm looking to achieve this by speedrunning Final Fantasy IX live on Twitch.tv/mediocrepoet. Final Fantasy IX holds a special place in my and my brother's (Peter's father) heart as one of the games that made us truly fall in love with video games. During Peter's funeral proceedings, two songs from Final Fantasy IX were chosen to honour his life.


For this event, I'd be aiming to complete the game in under 10 hours (World record pace is under 9 hours), while providing entertainment, information and raffle prizes for donations. 


Ideally, we will be raising $6000 for a Cuddle Cot, allowing other parents who experience infancy loss to spend extra time with their child. These cots provide a cool environment for the baby, giving the parents the invaluable gift of time, letting them spend a few extra hours together as a family.

The cot donated will be in memory of Peter Benjamin Smith, giving countless other parents access to a service and support that is seldom thought of during the trauma of infant loss.



Any donation of over $5 will go in the draw to win either a Vivi Plush or a FInal Fantasy game of your choice on Steam, simply add in your Steam ID in the donation, message me on Twitch with you donation information or email me at mediocrepoetic@gmail.com to be in the running!

Thanks, and I hope you stay to watch!
