The Extra Life 24-Hour Marathon has passed. All of my technology that I pulled into the living room for the ordeal has been put back in its proper place. I’ve caught up on sleep. I’ve moved on to playing other games.
Extra Life may already feel like a distant memory, but it really shouldn’t. There are still things to say and funds to raise for children in need.
First and foremost, Thank You. One of the great things about Extra Life is how it unifies people. I am always amazed and humbled by how many people gather to support Katy and I. You all are an inspiration to me. You’ve all supported me in the past. But, your support of Extra Life gives a tangible, measurable representation of that support.
Together, you helped me raise $500 and helped Katy and I surpass $1,000 dollars. All of these funds will go directly to Family Services at Children’s Healthcare of Atlanta, and so your charitable acts will provide families with the counseling, education, and support they need during their most difficult time. You’ll be giving children access to Child Life Specialists, which promote coping and normalization for kids facing life-altering disabilities or illnesses. You’ll be keeping children safe and healthy by funding Social Workers; you’ll make sure kids don’t miss out on their education during prolonged hospital stays by allowing CHOA to afford teachers.
That is the greatest thing about Extra Life: together, we’ve helped kids and families in need.
