Calendar of Events
March 7th – April 14th: Fifth annual BroadcastHER Academy Esports Fellowship Applications Open!
1,000 Dreams Fund’s BroadcastHER Academy Esports Fellowship Program (Powered By Allied Esports & HyperX) provides a year-long fellowship program opportunity to potential applicants that includes a $1,000 grant to help further their education along with a behind-the-scenes look at the esports industry via an all-expense paid trip to the HyperX Arena Las Vegas to spend a day shadowing the Allied Esports team and so much more.
March 10th – March 24th: We’re recruiting for our Dream Stream Host (formerly BroadcastHER LIVE)!
Dream Stream is our monthly podcast on the 1,000 Dreams Fund Twitch Channel. Each month, the topics and guests change, but one thing remains the same — all shows aim to empower and help the women we serve achieve their goals and dreams in gaming and beyond. Each year, we seek a new host for the podcast, allowing a member within our Gaming & Esports Community to take the role in which they’ll be helping our beneficiaries and community members reach their dreams through advice and interviews they will conduct as our host!
March 4th @ 2PM EST: Second annual BroadcastHER Tournament!
Elevating women in gaming, esports, and content creation — and creating safe spaces for them — is so important to us at 1,000 Dreams Fund. And our second annual BroadcastHER Tournament, in collaboration with Paidia Gaming and Girls Gotta Game, is just one more way we’re doing just that. This Apex Legends Tournament is a women only tournament designed to encourage and support more women to get tournament experience and enter the esports scene of Apex Legends. This tournament includes more than $10,000 in prizing up for grabs — thanks to our sponsors at e.l.f. and HyperX. So make sure to mark your calendar and get ready to tune in LIVE over on our 1DF Twitch Channel Saturday, March 4 @ 2 p.m. EST for the Finals between 60 total competitors!

Our BroadcastHER Dream Team is a dedicated group of 15+ ambassadors in esports, broadcasting, and gaming who are helping us make dreams come true through their support of our Gaming & Esports Initiative. But this year we’re upping the game!In 2023, for the first-time-ever, we will be recruiting members for our FPS competitive team that will be invited to take part in tournaments, events, and even in-person LANs on behalf of our Dream Team. These members will also get additional behind-the-scenes opportunities – helping us make dreams come true through fundraising, outreach, and much more!
March 27th – March 31st: Our SIXTH annual Streams For Dreams Fundraiser!
1,000 Dreams Fund continues its commitment to elevating women in the digital broadcasting and gaming space with our annual Streams For Dreams Fundraiser this March!
