In Fortnite: Battle Royale (PC, PS4, iOS, Switch & Xbox One), the streamer Ninja raised an extremely high amount for a good cause. One of his fans even donated 100,000 USD. But who is it?
Charity Stream for GuardianCon: GuardianCon is a gaming convention in Florida. It officially starts on July 13, 2018. However, streaming events took place before that. Various streamers participated and raised donations for a good cause: St. Jude’s Children’s Research Hospital, a children’s hospital.
A total of 2.7 million USD in donations was raised. A significant portion of that was collected during the stream of the famous Fortnite streamer Ninja.
Ninja fan donates 100,000 USD at once!
Ninja himself is an extremely successful streamer who earns hundreds of thousands of dollars every month. His fans are therefore quite willing to spend a lot of money for their hero. Hence, Ninja has raised a total of 325,000 USD in the charity stream for GuardianCon.
Gigantic individual donation: It was basically clear that Ninja would collect a lot of money. But when suddenly an anonymous benefactor donated 100,000 USD to the donation pile, it left even Ninja momentarily speechless. You can see the moment when the money arrives in the embedded video here.
Drake or Epic?
Who could it be? The donor of the 100,000 dollars wants to remain anonymous and did not leave a name. However, it is assumed that it was the rapper Drake. On one hand, he also has a lot of money and is a good friend of Ninja. The two even play together more often. Alternatively, it could also have been Epic Games itself, the developers of Fortnite.
Ninja in new look: To celebrate the event, Ninja now wants to dye his hair again. And he also wants to get two new tattoos. Hopefully not on his butt, because two Destiny streamers made that promise after they managed to collect around 50,000 USD for the charity event in 30 minutes.
