Extra Life 2022
Posted by: Accendo on 10-14-2022 04:00 PM


We?re teaming up with Extra Life again to benefit the Children?s Miracle Network!

Hello, Norrathians!

Darkpaw Games is once again on a quest to play EverQuest and EverQuest II to help change kids' health by teaming up with Extra Life. This year, we?re back to supporting our local Children's Miracle Network Hospital: Rady Children's Hospital ? San Diego, a nonprofit, 511-bed pediatric care facility and the region?s only pediatric trauma center. With 170 hospitals in the Children's Miracle Network, each location treats thousands of kids annually, regardless of their illness, injury, or family's ability to pay.

Last year, with all of your help, we surpassed our goal, and we aim to do the same this year. We are even more focused on helping local kids in need this year, setting our goal higher. For the first time, we are introducing several in-game incentives for both EQ and EQII as we meet various collective donation milestones! More on that in a bit.

We sincerely hope you'll consider spreading the word in-game, on social media, and to family and friends. If you're able to donate, please do, every little bit helps.

Incentives
We stepped up this year and wanted to provide all players of EverQuest II with collective as well as individual incentives for hitting various donation-level milestones.
