Summer Games Done Quick 2025 is a fundraising event. Much like years past, the 2025 iteration of SGDQ will raise money for Doctors Without Borders, an international, non-governmental humanitarian organization that provides emergency medical services to those affected by famine, war, disease, and natural disasters. DWB also offers assistance “based on need, irrespective of race, religion, gender or political affiliation,” per the organization’s official website.
Summer Games Done Quick 2025 is scheduled to run July 6-13. Those interested can watch the event on the GDQ Twitch channel.
