SGDQ 2015 [1.23 Million $ Raised]

What is SGDQ? "SGDQ starts at 1:00 p.m. ET Sunday, July 26 and can be watched live on Twitch. The event runs through Saturday, Aug. 1. This year it's being held in Minneapolis, MN where over 150 speedrunners will gather in a conference room at the Crowne Plaza St. Paul ­Riverfront.

Of course it's a social gathering for the community that surrounds the Speed Demos Archive, but it's also a fundraiser which you can donate to here.
This year's charity is Doctors Without Borders, an international non-governmental humanitarian organization that helps bring emergency medical services to those affected by war, disease, famine and natural disaster. They offer assistance "based on need, irrespective of race, religion, gender or political affiliation."
This is the fourth time that SGDQ has raised money for Doctors Without Borders, and last year they raised more than $718,000. This year, they hope to break $1 million, a mark already surpassed by AGDQ twice." -Polygon

Where to watch it:

I've been waiting for SGDQ all year and its finally time. It started 50 minutes ago and Trihex is kicking it off, and there's no one better that they could have picked. Currently 85,000 people are watching.

I will edit this every once in a while with how much money has been donated. 150.5 Hours in: $1.001m

This looks like a great place to have fun and help donate for a greater cause. I really hope they reach 1 million in donations!

Yeah me too. I think they'll reach it sense it grows bigger every year. I personally love watching speed runs of old games i used to play, so i could watch it all day. :~}
