This year marks the 15th year for Extra Life and they have raised over $8.5 Million in 2023 so far.
In 2020 I was told about Extra Life from a friend on Twitch named Duanerinc. He asked me to join his team to help raise money for my local hospital in a 24-hour Charity Stream. I had only been streaming for about a year at that point wasn't expecting much, but I gave it a go and ended up raising $140 that year. Here we are three years later, in my fourth year, and we raised around $1600 as a team for our local hospitals.
Extra-Life started for me 10 years ago when a former classmate introduced me to this amazing cause. I never thought playing video games could ever have much impact but since Extra-Life has started, knowing they've raised over $130 million since they started. The story of Victoria Enmon is such a touching story about how a little girl got this movement started. These kids need us and anything we can do/give to raise awareness is important. It's heartbreaking as these kids haven't even had a chance to live life. I will forever be an Extra-Lifer and do what I can to raise awareness for the cause. Ever since I started to participate in Extra-Life I've found an uplifting, and amazing community that welcomes everyone with open arms. I couldn't imagine NOT doing this every year as it is such an amazing cause. If you're a gamer, you should look into Extra-Life if you're interested in raising money for a Children's Miracle Network Hospital of your choosing.
