Bronies For Good Charity Livestream

Bronies For Good has sent out a 'Press release' about an upcoming charity livestream they will be doing. It will feature Tara Strong, Andrea Libman, M. A. Larson, Anelli Heed, and lots of well-known fan artists. Check out the copypasta after the break.


Kallisti II: A 24-Hour Massively Multiartist Charity Livestream with Prominent Guests


Do you want to mingle with the crème de la crème of pony art? Do you want to pose your questions to your favorite voice actor or writer and hang on every word that they speak?

Then imagine a Saturday that starts with Just For Sidekicks and then blossoms again only a few hours later when we launch

on January 26, 3 p.m. EST (8 p.m. UTC)

with over a dozen artists, friends, and prominent guests, among them Tara StrongAndrea LibmanAnneli Heed, and M.A. Larson!

The Artists
The Auction


Siora has created this wonderful plushie of the GalaCon ponysona Canni for our charity auction! She is 30 cm (almost 12 inches) tall and made of minky—the epitome of fluffiness.

The auction will be linked on the viewer page and then launch with the stream itself.

The Goal

Similar to the previous Kallisti event, donations to the Kallisti II fundraiser will be split evenly between GalaCon and the Bronies for Good Seeds of Kindness 2 fundraiser for rainwater harvesting tanks in the Karagwe District in Tanzania. Unlike last time, however, Galacon will be opening the floodgates for ticket sales during the stream, so you will be able to secure your attendance to the premier European ponycon!

For news and updates, stay tuned to our post of this announcement—we’ll keep it updated with the latest schedule and guest roster. (Also make sure to follow @BroniesForGood@gala_con, and @YourSiblings on Twitter.)

This event is an initiative of the European convention GalaCon and Bronies for Good and would not have been possible without the support and dedication of Bronystate and Celestia Radio.

Most importantly, bookmark the unified viewer page!
