🏃 @ndtex.gamin4aven.org turned a fundraising goal into a finish line by completing a 5K! What started as an incentive for hitting a fundraising milestone became an incredible race in Las Vegas and a great reminder that Extra Life goals can lead to some pretty amazing follow-through. Congrats, Ryan!

Local Sharkey's Cuts for Kids owner, Vivek, ran a marathon to support Atrium Health Levine Children’s Hospital, carrying forward a lifelong calling to protect and care for others. As a former Air Force aviator and a father of three, his "why" is simple: every child deserves a fighting chance.
Cosplay counts, too. 🕷️❤️
We love seeing you turn what you love into support for kids, and this Spider-Man cosplay by 8armedspidey (on IG) is doing exactly that by donating their time and raising funds for Bernard & Millie Duker Children's Hospital at Albany Med.

🎮👨💻 So fun seeing these Code Ninjas tour @obsidian.net after standing out in a game jam, a video game building competition. They earned the chance to visit the studio, explore where their skills could take them, and see how good giving back can feel! Thank you to our partners for this opportunity.
