Big E Gaming presents: Charity Fights 1

The good folks at Big E Gaming (Big E, Rob Hubbs and Kattermari) present the first of a hopefully reoccurring series of charity events to let the FGC make a difference in their local community. This event will be dedicated to raising funds for The Salvation Army of Philadelphia as well as a canned food drive for local food pantries.
