GFGC Marathon
December 28th, 2020 – December 31st, 2020
For the benefit of Direct Relief’s response to COVID-19
Due to the on-going COVID-19 pandemic, Gaming For Global Change was forced to innovate, producing a streaming event for charity while keeping everyone distanced and safe. From this conflict, GFGC Marathon, a four day remote streaming event featuring broadcasters from all around the globe, was born. After four days of daily streaming from 12PM-12AM, more than $1,300 was raised for the benefit of COVID-19 relief and several new members of our community had the opportunity to game for global change
