GAMERS FIGHTING COVID-19

I've been a lot less active here lately due to work ramping up and even busier since the this current pandemic. (I'm working remotely and since I'm single and don't have kids, I do a lot of extra work at times to cover for people dealing with family and children during these "interesting times")

With social distancing, isolation/quarantine measures in place it is currently impossible (and highly unsafe) for large in person events I attend to happen... which brings me to the topic of this post

"LANFest is hosting online charity video game tournaments to raise money for organizations battling Covid-19. Since COVID19 has stopped us from meeting in person, we decided to fight back."

https://lanfest.com/
They have multiple online events and charity drives benefiting research hospitals and charity of each event's choice

I'm attending "Infernalwan" this weekend

There is a twitch steam of tournaments going on here https://www.twitch.tv/lanfest

If you're interesting in helping out you could donate to my current event here
