Help kids in need just by playing video games, board games, or card games – no running required! Here's how it works: get sponsors to donate money for every hour you spend playing games at XtraFest: An Extra Life Fundraising Event. 24 hours of gaming to raise money for the Children's Hospital at Providence. Extra Life is a global charity benefiting children's hospitals. Alaskan gamers have raised more than $300,000 for the Children's Hospital at Providence since 2014. ExtraLifeAK.org.
