In 2023, during the mobilization against the pension reform, the association had raised 4.3 million euros.
These creators, who publish content on the Internet, call for donations on their online channels. The appeals cover video games, music, and crafts.
Thanks to Twitch and social media, they help fill strike funds. The principle is the same as that of a traditional strike fund.
According to him, this diversity makes it possible to reach hundreds, even thousands of people. The appeal thus addresses audiences who do not necessarily cross paths in the usual forms of solidarity.
The donations collected are intended in particular to fund legal proceedings, health needs, and the coordination of actions by mobilized high school and university students.
The funds must also cover certain expenses of high school students and give them the means to continue their mobilization.
He indicates that the money may also help high school or university students who may have been victims of police violence and who have health needs.
To date, the solidarity fund has collected more than 107,000 euros since October 1.
The current mobilization relies on the same lever: online communities enlisted to feed a common fund serving strikers and mobilized young people.
