On Saturday, Shacknews joined thousands in the gaming community to raise money for Extra Life, benefitting Children's Miracle Network hospitals. For 24 hours, we played games, gave prizes, and collected donations. Then, the Chatty community jumped in, keeping the effort going strong until late last night. By the end, Shacknews had raised $31,210 to help sick kids and became one of the of the top contributors.

Our contributions were a small part of the Extra Life effort as a whole, which so far has raised more than $5 million. On behalf of Shacknews, thank you to everyone who pitched in money or time, or even simply spread the word about our stream to others. We couldn't have done it without you.
