Popular FPS streamer Shroud has launched a unique charity initiative called Fragathon, raising over $260,000 for St. Jude's Children's Research Hospital. Motivated by the loss of his father to lung cancer, Shroud created this innovative fundraising stream where each in-game elimination equals one dollar in donations.
