Overview:

Awesome Games Done Quick and Summer Games Done Quick are two annual video game speedrun charity marathons held in the United States, originally organized by the communities at Speed Demos Archive and Speedruns Live, and run by a dedicated company, Games Done Quick, LLC, since 2015. Held since 2010, the events have raised money for several charities; the most common two being the Prevent Cancer Foundation and Doctors Without Borders. The events are broadcast live on Twitch. Viewers are encouraged to donate for incentives during the stream such as naming characters in a run, having the runners attempt more difficult challenges, or winning prizes. Over $8 million has been raised across fourteen marathons.
