Bleed to Lead!
Stream, watch, and earn swag!
Starting today and for the next two weeks, play games and earn swag in support of the American Red Cross! Join State of Decay 2’s fundraising team, “Bleed to Lead,” a campaign dedicated to fighting zombies and funding blood drives. If you sign up for a fundraising stream, the State of Decay 2 team will send you an exclusive Bloodmobile T-shirt as a thank you! (We’re partial to a certain zombie survival game, but you can stream any game you choose when you’re fundraising!)
Prizes
When you donate to a participating fundraiser on our campaign, you can win great rewards!
The rewards altogether include Xbox Play Anywhere keys for State of Decay 2, our official Bloodmobile T-shirt, a 3-month subscription to Game Pass, and two grand prize packages of customized hardware designed by Undead Labs. Let’s break down how this works.
- Donations of $15 or more will automatically receive an Xbox code for State of Decay 2.
- Note: Donating to a Team or individual is the fastest way to receive your swag. If you donate to the top level of the Event page (redcross.org/stateofdecay), your reward will be delayed while we collect your information after the campaign has ended
- Donations of $45 or more will automatically receive our Bloodmobile T-shirts!
- Same note as above. We strongly recommend you donate directly to a Team or individual fundraiser. Here’s ours!
- One note on this, we will gather information at the end of the campaign in order to fulfill your T-shirt reward, and T-shirts will ship after the campaign has ended (11:59pm PT on July 24).
- Not for streamers fundraising, Undead Labs will handle all fulfillment of T-shirts on the backend with help from our partners at the Red Cross and Tiltify
- The donation must be $45 or greater in order to qualify
- Donations are not cumulative; if you donate $30 and then $15 later, to any stream, it does not equal a T-shirt so be careful if that’s what you want!
- Any one time donation of $45 or more = 1 T-shirt
- For example: donations made at any one time of at least $45 whether $47, $60, or $500 = 1 T-shirt
- However if you donate in multiples of $45 to participating stream(s), that earns multiple T-shirts
- For example: say you donate to one stream at $50, and later to another stream at $45. That = 2 T-shirts
The minimum donation to be entered into the giveaways is $10. Any donation of $10 or more will also be entered to win Game Pass 3-month subscriptions and two extra special State of Decay 2 prize packages (and donating at higher levels gets you more chances to win — more information below!)
Each entry will be counted and winners randomly selected to receive a 3-month Game Pass subscription at our milestones (watch our campaign for details!)
At the end of the campaign (11:59pm PT on Sunday, July 24), all entries received will be accounted for and two winners randomly selected to win our two special State of Decay 2 prize packages:
- Prize Package A: Custom Logitech gaming mouse, designed by Undead Labs, and custom Airpods Pro
- Prize Package B: Custom Xbox controller, designed by Undead Labs, and custom Airpods Max
Higher donation levels earn you more chances to win these prizes! Here’s exactly how it works.
Anyone who donates at least $10.00 to ANY participating Bleed to Lead streaming campaign will be entered for a chance to win. To determine the number of entries, each donation is broken down into $10 increments, with each $10 constituting one entry. Donations do not need to be exact or multiples of the increments listed above. In other words, $10 and $11 donations get one entry; $60 and $61 get six entries, and so on.
Each donation made separately through one of the channels above is separate for purposes of counting entries. In other words, two separate donations of $15 each grant you 2 entries (not 3 entries, which would be the case if one donation of $30 had been made). Donations must be made through an individual or team fundraiser or on the Tiltify site using a credit card and successfully processed to completion (and not subject to any chargebacks or disputes) during the giveaway period to count.
