How You Can Donate During the Extra Life: IGN Cares x Kinda Funny Charity Stream and Beyond



While the Extra Life: IGN Cares x Kinda Funny stream is meant to be a ton of fun and a way to see your favorite IGN hosts and editors interacting with Kinda Funny, the main goal is to raise money for the incredible kids who don’t deserve to be going through what they are.

We want to help these kids as they go through their own battles, and the best way for you to get involved and do the same is by visiting Kinda Funny’s Extra Life page and donating whatever you are able.

All donations are tax-deductible and go towards making a huge difference in the lives of those kids currently at UCSF Benioff Children’s Hospitals, which is part of the Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals.

Let’s all have fun and make this world a better place, together!
