: GamePolitics.comExtra Life Charity Drive Enters Third Year
By pete_gallagher
Founded by people behind the Sarcastic Gamer website, the Extra Life charity drive encourages teams of gamers, or sole participants, to play games for a 24-hour stretch in order to raise money for the Children's Miracle Network.
The 2008 and 2009 events raised a total of $302,000, all of which went directly to the charity. The best part: anyone can join in and raise funds simply by registering, creating a personal fundraising page and then hitting up friends and relatives as sponsors.
Extra Life 2010 kicks off on Saturday, October 16 at 8:00 AM in participant's local time zone. This year's event also boasts involvement by a team of editors from IGN, which is sure to raise awareness of the event, and hopefully donations as well.
Entrants in this year's challenge can also choose to contribute proceeds to the Children's Miracle Network hospital of their choice.
