Milk’s pledge

Fueling change

Women compose nearly half of the gaming community, yet only comprise 5% of esports players, with no representation in the top 500 highest overall earners.

So we decided to help level the playing field in esports.

Milk is fueling change by creating The Milk Cup in partnership with @ThePeachCobbler, WOTE and Raidiant’s all-women production team. A women-take-all Tournament Series where anyone who identifies as a woman can compete safely and ruthlessly against one another, for the largest prize pool in North America:

The quarter million.
