Call of the Community Charity Event

Hi everyone,

A lot of stuff's been going on in the strange world of YouTube recently, much of it pretty much the same as everything else. I'm referring to the gaming community in particular here - it seems respect is rather hard to come by these days. But something kind of interesting is coming up soon - there's a charity event coming up this weekend called Call of the Community. The goal of this event is to bring together YouTube's gaming community, grow some respect, and most importantly, make it worthwhile on a global scale, raising money for three charities:

- Thirst Relief International: Aims to give clean water and sources thereof to developing, third-world countries.

- Gamers for Giving: Gives cancer victims Xboxes and PS3s to pass the time during Chemo.

- anthonynolan.org: Funds cancer research and supports the families of cancer victims.

Anyways, it's a great event, and I'm really excited for it. Visit the website to watch the live stream and/or to donate at 9 pm EST on Friday, July 15, 2011 for team-making, and 3 pm EST on Sunday, July 17 for the main event. Call of Duty MLG rules, all that awesome stuff.
