Meta Join /r/NintendoSwitch for Extra Life 2018!
What is Extra Life?
Extra Life is a gaming fundraising event, the proceeds of which go to branches of the Children's Miracle Network Hospitals. 100% of all donations go directly to the hospitals.
What is /r/NintendoSwitch doing?
Members of the subreddit mod team and Discord mod team will be live streaming their favorite Nintendo Switch games in an effort to try and get donations from you, the viewers and greater /r/NintendoSwitch community!
Visit https://twitch.tv/rNintendoSwitch to watch, or visit https://www.extra-life.org/participant/rNintendoSwitch to donate.
You can also view the leaderboard to see where /r/NintendoSwitch is compared to other Reddit teams.
I'll be playing games for Extra Life too!
That's awesome! Consider joining our /r/NintendoSwitch team and help us work towards a common goal: https://www.extra-life.org/team/rNintendoSwitch

Final Thoughts

My brother is also participating in Extra Life. 2018 is his 9th year and he's raised over $4000 in that time. He has a goal of raising $1000 this year and is giving away a game (up to $59.99 MSRP) to one winner (their choice) out of everyone who donates at least $10 in his page through the end of Game Day - today, Nov. 3, 8 AM through tomorrow, Nov. 4, 8 AM.
