Extra Life 2024

DONATE

3/27/2024: One milestone down, more to go!

Welcome to my donation page!
To see what I do year-round, please visit my Patreon or Gamer Reverie blog.

What is Extra Life? It's gamers doing what they love best in order to raise money for Children's Miracle Network Hospitals across the US and Canada. (Don't fret -- if you aren't in the States, my chosen Hospital treats International children in need!) The charity effort lasts all year long, with a 24-hour marathon taking place each year. This year's marathon day is TBD!

This year my theme is CREATIVITY! Expect to see games with exceptional art, music, story, crafting, and unique mechanics... and similar elements in donation incentives!


Marathon Day

I'll be streaming at least 2 hours every month, with a special longer stream on Marathon Day! Join me every month on the 3rd Monday from 8 to 10 PM central on Twitch! (Subject to change based on infringing reality and... ugh... responsibilities.)
