Mojang, Twitch.TV and QubeTubers are currently hosting a Minecraft marathon and fundraiser to raise money for the eminent Child's Play charity. Child's Play seems to get involved whenever something like this goes down, and they do awesome stuff like buying video games for sick kids in hospitals.

So it's no wonder that the second QubeTubers Minecraft marathon has raised over $55,000. With several hours left, they're still hoping to reach $75,000. And we're hearing more whispers about Notch shaving his beard if they get there.

Check out the live stream on Twitch and donate if you don't hate sick kids. You don't hate sick kids, do you? You'll even get a chance to win some indie games. As always, leave a comment below or on Twitter.
