Nerds Gaming Into Wee Hours To Raise Money For Kids Hospital
MINNEAPOLIS (WCCO) - Saturday night, 50 self-proclaimed "nerds" are playing games to heal kids.
The Nerdery is hosting a 24-hour game-a-thon as part of "Extra Life" weekend.
It raises money through marathon game-playing.
The Nerdery's money will go toward Gillette Children's Hospital in Minneapolis, in honor of the son of one of its nerds who has cerebral palsy.
The games started at 8 a.m. Saturday and continue through Sunday morning.
So far, they've raised nearly $11,000.
