This year 15,000 Penn State students, volunteers, and cancer survivors gathered in the Bryce Jordan center and danced for 46 hours straight. No sleeping, no sitting, just dancing. It’s called the Penn State IFC/Panhellenic Dance Marathon or #THON, and as exhausting as it sounds, these selfless individuals raised $13.02 million dollars for Four Diamond Fund based out of Penn State Hershey Medical Center.
$13 million dollars. That’s a whole lotta cash.
So as a show of thanks for the people who gave up their weekend for the kids, we pulled together a collection of our favorite photos from #THON. See them below.
