THON is the world’s largest student-run philanthropy, engaging more than 16,000 students and over 25,000 alumni in the fight ... against childhood cancer. THON’s yearlong fundraising and awareness campaign culminates in a 46-hour no-sitting, no-sleeping dance marathon every February. Since 1977, Penn State students have raised more than $167 million for THON’s sole beneficiary, Four Diamonds at Penn State Children’s Hospital, funding comprehensive care and critical research.
