The adult fandom of the animated television series My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic has established a tradition of charity and fundraising activities since the show's premiere in 2010. The adult fanbase, commonly known as bronies, has spawned various charitable organizations and initiatives, raised hundreds of thousands of dollars for various causes, and established formal non-profit organizations dedicated to philanthropic work. Major charitable efforts include the Brony Thank You Fund—which became the first media-related fandom to achieve 501(c)(3) non-profit status and donated $50,000 to endow an animation scholarship at the California Institute of the Arts—and the organization Bronies for Good, which has coordinated blood drives and raised over $60,000 for charities likethe Children's Cancer Association, Room to Read, CureSearch for Children's Cancer, and Your Siblings. Individual campaigns have also achieved success, such as fundraising efforts that raised over $100,000 for a cancer fund to help the daughter of a close friend of show voice actor Tara Strong, and more than $72,000 to support an 11-year-old fan who attempted suicide after being bullied for watching the show. Brony conventions regularly feature charity auctions and fundraising events as part of their programming. These events have collectively raised hundreds of thousands of dollars for various charitable causes; individual conventions have often raised tens of thousands of dollars for organizations like the Seattle Children's Hospital and CureSearch for Children's Cancer. The fandom's charitable activities have been recognized by media outlets and academics as a unique characteristic that differentiates it from other fan communities. Academic analyses have identified the show's positive messages about friendship and helping others as a significant driver of charitable participation among bronies.
