Games Done Quick is a charity fundraising organization focused on speedrunning. Volunteer speedrunners play games as fast as they can on stream (and usually at live events), explaining each time, and donations from viewers go to the charities. Incentives for donations may also be given during the event: additional challenges or extra content may be added, or viewers may be asked to name the runner's game character.
