Extra Lives is a small team of high school students from New Jersey who use video games to raise money for charity. Every few months the Extra Lives team sets up a live feed of a video game marathon during which they interact with viewers and ask for donations. Over New Years they played a Zelda marathon which lasted more than 3 days and covered most of the Zelda cannon. At the moment they are playing a 64 hours of Nintendo 64 marathon (as I write this they're on Sonic '06) So be sure to go check them out and donate. The current charity is Free the Children.

I love this! It's nice to see these guys figuring out a way to turn the tables on the mouthbreathers who think that people who play video games are a detriment to society.
