What's more, PokerStars will host a freeroll for all of its players who donate at least $1 to the Life Ball 2008 fund. You can also make a donation to Life Ball 2008 directly from your PokerStars account. Click 'Requests' in the PokerStars lobby, select 'Transfer Funds', choose the amount you want to donate and enter 'Life Ball' in the 'To Player ID' section. Click to confirm your donation.

For a look back at last year's Life Ball celebration through the eyes of the PokerStars winners, see "PokerStars players support AIDS research."

PokerStars has worked very hard in the past several years to make a difference in the world off the felt. From rasing money for tsunami and Hurricane Katrina victims to donating big money to the Darfur effort, PokerStars and its players have proven themselves able to look above the game and toward something greater.

To see how you can make a difference and have some fun in the process, check out the PokerStars Life Ball 2008 page.
