Since Technoblade’s passing, his community,along with otherMinecraftstreamerssuch as Dream and TommyInnit, have spent months raising money for cancer research. They successfully reached a total of $500,000, which will be donated to the Sarcoma Foundation of America. Technoblade apparently supported the non-profit organization and its goal to fund research to raise awareness about sarcoma to help patients.
The SFA also published a “Technoblade Tribute” on its website. The organization expressed sadness over Technoblade’s recent death, stating that he will be forever in their hearts after his personal battle with sarcoma. It acknowledged the efforts of his community in raising $500,000 in the last few months, and also honored the lateMinecraftcontent creator with the Courage Award during its 20th Annual Stand Up to Sarcoma Gala last September. SFA ended its tribute with a hopeful message for patients fighting cancer. Donations are still open on SFA’s website for those who want to help with its ongoing advocacy.
In the past,Minecraftdeveloper Mojang Studios paid respects to Technobladeby adding a bejeweled crown to the pig in the Java version loading screen. Fans appreciated the subtle update as it showed that the people behindMinecraftwere also grieving and celebrating Technoblade’s life.
The recent donation to SFA is further proof that theMinecraftcommunity wants to keep Technoblade’s legacy alive. WithMinecraftstill one of the most popular gamesamong players of all ages, fans still flock to the Dream SMP streams and YouTube videos to support Technoblade’s friends. They could also revisit his past YouTube videos to see his past builds and speed runs. Technoblade is certainly an example of a young content creator who left a mark on his community despite being gone too soon.
