Coming back for another year, we would like to proudly welcome this year’s charity, Extra Life!
Extra Life, a not-for-profit, section 501(c)(3), is a fundraising program of Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals®. The Extra Life community fundraises year-round to Change Kids’ Health to Change the Future. Donations go to local member hospitals to fund critical life-saving treatments and healthcare services, along with innovative research, vital pediatric medical equipment, and child life services.
Since its inception in 2008, Extra Life has raised over $120 million USD to Change Kids’ Health to Change the Future.
You can read more about what they do, how they help children all over the country, and much more at their website located here. You can also find them on their social media page, including, but not limited to, Facebook and Twitter/X.
Last year, thanks to everyone’s generosity, Youmacon raised over $13,000 for Extra Life in both cash and online donations! Additionally, our vendors and artists donated toys, plushies, art, and more — totaling an additional $3,209 in non-cash donations. Your creativity and kindness make a real difference.
