Bungie Helps Guardian Con Streamers Raise $400k in Just Over 4 Hours

During the annual Guardian Con Charity Marathon Stream yesterday, Bungie devs stopped by and participated for over four hours. While their, viewers were asked to make a donation and rewarded for doing so with a Sign of Gambit 2018 emblem code, signed collector's editions, and even a studio tour for a complete 3-player fireteam. The goal was to raise $150,000 but viewers blew the fundraising initiative out of the water and raised over $400,000 instead!

A massive thank you to @Bungie for a MASSIVE block during the GuardianCon marathon! The LARGEST block EVER with $400 THOUSAND dollars and counting raised for the kids of St. Jude. @NeebsOfficial is up, let’s keep the hype going! https://t.co/iizFdXmE1m

Guardian Con has become a huge success story over the years. It was originally a Destiny community meet up but has turned into a powerhouse fundraising event. 

This year's event started on June 16th and will run through June 23rd. The stream team has set a $3M goal and, to date, nearly $2.5M has been raised with just a couple of days to go.
