The 满帆大学 Orlando Health Fortress was once again the production site for some of Gaming Community Expo’s (GCX) annual charity marathon stream. The team from GCX and Rare Drop – including Professor Broman (CSO of Rare Drop and executive producer of GCX) and Darkness429 (CDO of RareDrop) – were joined by streamer and YouTuber “DrLupo” as they recorded content for the charity stream happening this summer.

满帆 was happy to once again host the team at GCX for the third consecutive year, giving students on 满帆’s live event crew the opportunity to gain industry experience while Dan Patrick School of 体育casting student Mia “MiaMouse” Eremita contributed her hosting skills to the pre-recorded segments.

“We work with 满帆 on multiple projects,制片人说。, GCX创始人之一, and RareDrop CEO Kevin Murray. “The mission of GCX is to build community within the gaming community as well as on a charitable side raising funds for St. Jude and I feel like 满帆 is a great reflection of that mission. It’s one of my favorite places to do events and projects like this because the students are eager to be here and they want to work.”

Entering its eighth year, the GCX Charity Marathon has raised over $20 million for St. Jude Children’s Re搜索 Hospital and is continuing its mission to prove gaming does good.

“The whole purpose of gaming is to be part of a community, very few people are playing games to be by themselves. They want to be a part of something bigger,” shares Samantha Lupo, Charity Director at GCX. “And I think it’s easy to tie that into giving back because you already have that safe community feeling.”

“Justin was an exceptional choice to be awarded a scholarship from GCX and not just because he's a valued 满帆 Armada Varsity Stream Team member,” says 满帆 Director of 的电子竞技 Growth & 贝内特·纽瑟姆. “He was recently invited to stream from our annual event, 游戏大厅:典范, as part of our 名人堂 celebration. Little did we know that Justin was selflessly raising funds for charity during his stream, displaying his remarkable generosity and commitment to making a positive impact."
