United By Purpose
Extra Life is more than a fundraiser. It's a community of gamers, content creators, tabletop players, partners, hospitals, and supporters working together to make a difference for local children's hospitals. No matter how you play, there's a place for you here.
The People Behind The Impact
Every Extra Lifer has their own reason for getting involved. Some are gamers, streamers, tabletop players and content creators who want to turn the games they love into something meaningful. Others are former patients, parents whose children received care, family members, friends and supporters who have seen the impact of a local children’s hospital firsthand.
Many join because they believe every child deserves access to exceptional healthcare close to home. Others simply want to give back to their community through the power of play.
No matter what brings someone here, every Extra Lifer is helping support local children’s hospitals and the kids and families who rely on them.
Making A Bigger
Difference Together
Extra Life partners with game publishers, technology companies, retailers, content platforms, community organizations and brands that believe in the power of play. Together, these partnerships create fun and meaningful opportunities for employees, customers and communities to support local children’s hospitals through fundraising, gaming and shared experiences. Whether someone joins through their workplace, a favorite gaming brand or a special campaign, they’re helping strengthen children’s healthcare in their own community.
Supporting Local Children’s Hospitals
Every Extra Lifer chooses a local Children’s Miracle Network children’s hospital to support. Across the United States and Canada, these hospitals provide specialized care for kids facing illnesses, injuries and complex medical needs while advancing children’s healthcare through research, innovation and family centered services.
When you register, you’ll choose the children’s hospital that’s meaningful to you. The funds you raise benefit that local children’s hospital, helping it address its greatest needs and support kids and families in your community.
