Extra Life for Lurie Children's Hospital

This Saturday, starting at 8:00am Central, I'll be playing video games for 24 hours straight to raise money for Extra Life. All proceeds will go to Lurie Children's Hospital of Chicago, where my daughter Olivia is being treated. Olivia was born prematurely after just 24 weeks but has received amazing care from the staff of Lurie Children's Hospital. I'm very happy to be able to give something back while doing something I love at the same time.

I'll be streaming live on Twitch all day. Come by and say hello, and please consider donating if you can. Thanks for your support!

About Mike

Hello! I'm Mike Aparicio. I've been making websites for over 30 years and have found a niche at the intersection of design and engineering — building CSS-based design systems where engineers don't have to write CSS and helping product teams develop a shared language for building on the web. I run a design system consultancy called Triangle.

I write about design systems and CSS, as well as video games, movies, television, and parenting. If you enjoyed this article, consider supporting me on Kofi.
