.. _endowar: ======= Endowar ======= What is Endowar? ---------------- Endowar is an association founded by Julie "*Elhyar*" Navarro, Hugo "*Phare_Macie*" Desmarchelier, and myself. Our goal is to organize charity events and tournaments on the game **Age of Empires 2**, known as *The Endowar Series*. The fourth event we hosted raised approximately **€13,000**, all of which was donated to the **Endomind** association. Endowar 1 --------- Elhyar primarily organized this first edition on her own, raising around **€3,500**. The event featured **showmatches** between top players from the French community. Additionally, there was an **FFA match** with well-known streamers such as *Khalen*, *Kennystream*, and others. Endowar 2 --------- This edition was a **tournament** between *Kings* (strong players from the French community) and *Queens* (members of the Age of Queens Community). We raised approximately **€2,500** during this event.
