This year the Tomb Raider Community Extra Life team is embarking on their seventh annual Extra Life marathon, raising money for The Children's Miracle Network!
Since the formation of the group in 2012, the team has raised over $20,000 for children seeking medical treatment in the US and Canada, and at the time of writing, they have raised a staggering $3,107 already this year, charging quickly towards their 2018 team goal of $5,000.
About Extra Life
This year marks the tenth anniversary of the Extra Life marathon initiative. Started in 2008, Extra Life began, as a way of honoring Victoria Enmon who battled acute lymphoblastic leukaemia. After her passing in January of that year, the event was set up to raise money for the hospital (Texas Children’s Hospital) which had cared for her so that it can help other children facing similar situations. The follow year, Extra Life expanded and in 2009, more than a hundred websites and 12,000 donors supported the campaign. In response to worldwide attention and support, the campaign turned its attention to raising money for the Children's Miracle Network Hospitals so that more children like Victoria can get the medical help they need.
By donating in this year's Extra Life your money will go towards caring for children in hospitals across the United States and Canada. Every minute, 62 children enter the hospitals and the donations received throughout the livestreams provide help for children regardless of whether or not they have health insurance. The money also helps the hospitals improve and maintain the level of care by paying for training, research and equipment. The Children's Miracle Network consists of 170 hospital which provide 32 million treatments across the US and Canada.
