About Extra Life
Extra Life (http://www.extra-life.org) was founded in 2008 by Jeromy Adams, known as “Sarcastic Gamer” (www.sarcasticgamer.com) in the video gaming community. The Sarcastic Gamer Community included participation from Victoria (Tori) Enmon, a 15-year-old girl, who was not only passionate about video gaming but was using this hobby to give her strength to fight three bouts of acute lymphoblastic leukemia. Tori’s battle inspired the Sarcastic Gamer Community to send her video games and gifts to keep up her spirits despite numerous hospital stays. Following Tori’s passing later that year, an annual Extra Life Marathon was launched and is now an official Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals campaign to raise money for local children’s hospitals to help save the lives of other children.
