The Łatwogang Campaign

Celebrity Involvement and Activities
The campaign featured participation from celebrities including Dorota “Doda” Rabczewska, Robert Lewandowski, Adam Małysz, Cezary Pazura, and Roksana Węgiel. Some, like Edyta Pazura, Katarzyna Nosowska, and Blanka Lipińska, shaved their heads in solidarity with children battling cancer.
Dawid Podsiadło, YouTuber Książulo, and rapper OKI also contributed. Live activities included Roksana Węgiel performing with Andziaks, rapper Kubańczyk getting a tattoo created by a foundation beneficiary, and rapper Tede resolving a long-standing conflict with rapper Pei.
Origins of the Fundraiser
The charity drive was sparked by rapper Bedoes’ song “Ciągle tutaj jestem (diss na raka)” featuring Maja Mecan from the Cancer Fighters Foundation, raising awareness about childhood cancer. Łatwogang then challenged his followers to determine the livestream’s duration based on likes on a TikTok video, resulting in a nine-day stream.
