Hi everyone! I believe we are due for an update on the Extra-Life front. It's been a few months and as such a few months closer to the big marathon! As always I look forward to it, but we have a lot of ground to cover before we get there. After all, the 2019 campaign broke records yet again, this time breaking $15,000,000 for the year! Despite the effort of skript-kiddies to DDOS the event, we still broke the record by over $2,000,000! And if you wish to see the breakdown of just what the Children's Miracle Network with this, click the link.
But this year is going to prove our most challenging yet as people the world over have been dealing with the lockdowns to try to keep COVID-19 from spreading. Many people are now out of work and their jobs may be lost to preventative measures. And while people staying home have made gaming a much bigger thing as of late, it also changes the environment in which we will be trying to help the children out this year. But I can't help but think we are up for the challenge. As if to prove the matter, early April still saw the big event of Extra Life United occur as they quickly shifted gears and brought the tournaments into the virtual realm, still bringing in almost $400,000 to help the children. Everyone involved should be absolutely proud of themselves!
And finally, though we have been quiet, we have not been inactive. At this time my team has already brought in $125. A small amount compared to our records, to be sure, but we are moving with the goal of breaking last year's record of almost $1,600 for the team. And we will need your help to do so. How do you help? Well you can reach our page by either clicking the thermometer on the right-side of this page or click here to each our team page. In there, there is a donate button, and picking the player will pick which hospital you wish to help directly.
Thank you in advance for helping us out, and see you out there in the games.
