Gaming4Guts want to wish you a joyful and safe 4th of July!

This holiday is a time to reflect on freedom, community, and resilience—values that also lie at the heart of our mission. Whether you’re lighting sparklers, firing up the grill, or just enjoying a well-earned break, we hope today brings you moments of joy, rest, and connection.

We’re grateful for our amazing community of gamers, streamers, and supporters who continue to show up for those living with Crohn’s disease and ulcerative colitis. Your passion fuels the work we do and reminds us that, together, we’re stronger.

As we enjoy the celebration, let’s also keep looking ahead to our next great cause-driven adventure—because the fight for awareness, support, and hope never takes a holiday.

Happy 4th of July, and thank you for being part of the Gaming4Guts family!

Standing Together on IBD Day: Why We Game for a Cause

Today is World IBD Day, a day recognized globally to raise awareness for Inflammatory Bowel Disease, which includes Crohn’s disease and ulcerative colitis. These chronic illnesses affect millions of people around the world—causing pain, fatigue, and daily challenges that can often be invisible to others.

At Gaming4Guts, we’re more than just a group of gamers—we’re a community built around purpose. Since 2014, we’ve united players, streamers, and supporters to help raise both funds and awareness for those living with IBD. What began as a small grassroots effort has now grown into a movement that’s raised over $70,000 for IBD-related causes.

Why We Game
We game to bring attention to the everyday realities of life with IBD.
We game to raise funds for research, better treatments, and patient support.
We game to honor loved ones—our friends, our families, and especially the moms, dads, siblings, and partners who inspire us to keep going.

For many of us, this cause is deeply personal. Whether you live with IBD yourself or support someone who does, you’re part of a community that understands the strength it takes to fight an invisible illness.

How You Can Help
🎮 Join a stream during one of our #Gaming4Guts events.

💙 Donate to support IBD research and care.

📢 Share stories to spread awareness and understanding.

🧑‍🤝‍🧑 Connect with our community—especially through our Discord server built for gamers with IBD.

On this IBD Day, we reflect, we raise our voices, and—we keep gaming. For awareness. For advocacy. For a cure.

Thank you for standing with us.

Move Night at Gaming4Guts

This year here at Gaming4Guts we decided to do more community-oriented activities for everyone in our Discord community to participate in. We were able to add a movie bot to the Discord server to be able to keep track of poll results and the movie list. Our first movie night this year took place back in February. The first movie we watched was The Fifth Element. Since then every month we run a poll on the Discord server for 48 hours on the first weekend of every month. During that time everyone gets an opportunity to vote on the poll, add movies to the list to be watched, and then the winner is announced. We host these movie nights on the fourth Saturday every month where the community gathers in the movie night Discord channel; watching the week’s newest movie trailers like a traditional theatre giving folks a little extra time to make it in to catch the show.

This month we are watching Willow. This event will take place on June 25th at 8:30 pm Eastern/5:30 pm Pacific time. If you can join us please do!

World IBD Day – #GameOverIBD

We are excited to announce that on May 14th we will be celebrating World IBD day by hosting streams all day on Twitch to raise awareness for Inflammatory Bowel Disease! World IBD Day this year is officially on March 19th but we decided to celebrate a little early due to World IBD Day falling during the week. This is when we determined that allows more people to be involved! If you are interesting in joining the Gaming4Guts crew on Tiltify please check out our campaign page here.

We’ve been wanting to do an event around World IBD Day for a few years now. We were finally able to get it done this year. We hope that next year we will give everyone a little more notice than we did this time. Life has just been very busy for all of the administrators over here at Gaming4Guts!

Another thing that is happening on World IBD Day is that the Crohn’s & Colitis Foundation will be hosting a gaming event on Tiltify this year! You can find more information about this here on the CCF website. The Crohn’s & Colitis Foundation came up with an amazing hashtag for this years event: #GameOverIBD.

Thank you everyone for all of the support over the years. We look forward to seeing everyone’s fundraisers for World IBD Day!
