Testimonials
Donations to our Extra Life program help us to be able to provide comprehensive care to kids treated at Ann & Robert H. Lurie Children’s Hospital of Chicago. By donating games and helping to fill the birthday and toy storage closet, our activity coordinators ensure kids have access to distractions during medical care. Thank you to the attendees of the EsportsNext 2022 Conference for helping to make a difference in the lives of Chicago’s kids.
