Summary
$2.4 million was raised by Summer Games Done Quick 2026 after a weeklong speedrunning marathon in Minneapolis drew about 2,500 in-person attendees and thousands more online.
All donations go directly to Doctors Without Borders, and attendees were shown a short documentary on the group's work responding to the humanitarian crisis in Gaza.
The event mixed fundraising with marquee runs, including Bluekandy's world-record Kirby Air Riders performance, alongside panels, community rooms, game demos and a vendor area.
Games Done Quick has now raised more than $62 million for charities since 2010; SGDQ 2025 brought in about $2.44 million, and AGDQ 2026 raised $2.44 million for Prevent Cancer Foundation.
