Anthem Brewery and InsomniacGamers are holding a charity livestream on November 3rd from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m., as part of Anthem’s “Cheers For Charity”.
All donations, both online and in-person, will go to the Children’s Hospital Foundation via Extra Life. Our goal for this stream is to raise at least $1,000.
There are several donation incentives to choose from, from AMAs to setting game handicaps. There are also incentives to choose the sprite used, growing/shaving a beard for a future Extra Life event, and much more.
InsomniacGamers will be streaming The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past Randomizer live from the event and on their Twitch channel. Anthem Brewery will be providing over 20 plus beers on tap for the event, as well as host various games for open play.

Oklahoma City Gamers Come Together for Extra Life

By Leave a Comment

If you’re a gamer you’ve probably heard the name Extra Life, and I’m not talking about a 1-up in Super Mario. Extra Life is a Children’s Miracle Network charity that makes it easy for gamers of all types to raise money for their local children’s hospitals.

With the motto, “Play Games. Heal Kids.” Extra Life allows gamers to set up their own fundraising page, select their local hospital, set a goal and then take it from there. The challenge is to play games for 24 hours while raising funds through the site.

In 2014, a small group of Oklahoma City Dungeons & Dragons Adventurers League members got together for their own Extra Life fundraiser at Game HQ. Started by Anthony Caroselli, they played D&D and other tabletop games for 24 hours with a meager goal of $200 for the Children’s Hospital Foundation. They ended up raising $643 that weekend and thought, “this could be bigger.”
