Hi everyone! Once again checking in as a few more months have slipped by and November is getting ever closer to us. With this month comes the big day us Lifers look forward to, the 24-hour gaming marathon!
But I'm getting ahead of myself. After all, if this is your first time on the page, you may not yet know what I'm talking about. But the answer to that is simple: Extra-Life!
But what is Extra-Life? Well, first and foremost, Extra-Life is a charity event gamers from around the world take part in. We all pick a hospital we want to play for and drive donations to help them and the sick kids they are taking care of, culminating in early November when we take on the big event: a 24-hour gaming marathon. That's right. Extra-Life is all about playing video games to help sick kids. Sound impossible? Not at all. I myself can attest to taking part in this event since it first started, but if you want the origins, I would let the site itself tell the tail far better then I ever could.
And no, you don't have to worry about maintaining things. All you need to do is sign up (button on the main page of the Extra-Life site) and ask for help from your friends, family, workplace, you name it. And any help you bring to the table yourself is also more then welcome to help the kids who truly need it the most. All resources and details you could need are right there.
Of course if you do not feel like you could do a 24 marathon, you can always cheer and help the rest of us out. If you want to help our team here directly, thank you so much! You can find our team page right here, which will include one of our streamer's stream live (if they are life at the time) and a donate button which will let you pick who to help directly (we all play for our own hospitals, so you can pick which one you want to help this way). Thank you again for any help you want to give!
But on that note, I'm afraid I have to run... have a good weekend, and see you next time. Be that here on the page or in the streams!
Thank you!
