FlyQuest has announced that it will be running a charity campaign during the League of Legends World Championships, featuring reigning champions T1.
The esports organisation will make donations to two chosen non-profit organisations based on its own performance and that of T1 during the tournament in China.
FlyQuest elaborated that $5 will be donated for every minute played by either team. For example, if T1 plays 595 minutes during Worlds, then FlyQuest will donate $2795 to their chosen charity. Furthermore, for every 10,000 followers FlyQuest gains, an extra $1 will be added to the rate.
FlyQuest has chosen to send funds to the Alveus Sanctuary, a wildlife sanctuary founded by streamer Maya Higa that also offers online conservation education. A donation will also be made to T1’s chosen charity, set to be ‘announced soon’ with the amount tied to the team’s performance, which is expected to be high given it is the reigning champion from Worlds 2024.
Worlds 2025 So Far
The League of Legends World Championships 2025 is the crowning event of the MOBA game’s esports scene, where the best teams around the world compete to be crowned number one.
