The Starcraft Charity Events Tournament (SCE) is a charity event that will be hosted once every 3-4 months. This event will have a private tournament, which invites were sent out to some of the most entertaining people to watch in the Starcraft community. Then there will be an open community tournament, after the private one is finished. The goal of this event is to help raise funds for charities all around the world. The first SCE will be to raise funds for Unicef. It will be held on January 29th & 30th, 2011 (USA Time). RageQuit.Tv is helping host and cover this event.
