Built In Tori's Honor

Extra Life began in 2008 to honor the life of Victoria “Tori” Enmon, whose courage during her battle with leukemia inspired a community of gamers to turn their passion for play into a force for good. Today, that legacy lives on through thousands of gamers, creators, and supporters across the U.S. and Canada who raise funds for their local Children’s Miracle Network hospital. Every game played and every dollar raised helps children and families in their own communities, ensuring Tori’s story continues to inspire hope for generations to come.
