Gamers giving back to the community falls in line with what KEEMSTAR intended for the tournament initially.
With the rise of exposure around the Fortnite community there has been a proportional increase in charitable streamers.
On stream Typical Gamer first announced he would be donating his prize money to charity, but reaffirmed this with the tweet.
As I said during the stream, I’m donating my half of the $10,000 prize to charity. Spread the love!

Typical Gamer has not made public which charity he will donate the sum to, but it is heart warming to know that the money will go to a good cause.
It is likely we will see more streamers involved in the tournament giving back to the community and being charitable, as the competitive Fortnite scene continues to grow.
