Extra Lives for Charity!

Banner for this marathon

While the E3 recap is being worked on, you can satisfy your videogame cravings with one of the coolest videogame organizations ever made. ExtraLives.org is a website that hosts Multi-Day video game marathons. These college-age men and women "looking to play video games and fend off sleep to raise money for charity."

These guys have raised money through many different marathons and donate the money to build school houses in Africa to help those in need. They broadcast their marathons live online and these marathons have lasted anywhere from 18 to 72 hours. Each one has a theme and for this time around it is a The Legend of Zelda Marathon where two teams will be racing to complete the ENTIRE franchise of Zelda games! You can tune in to watch and for those of you feeling generous, you can also donate any amount of money to support and join the chats as well.
