After a year-round fundraising effort by the students of all Penn State campuses, THON culminates in a 46 hour no-sitting, no-sleep Dance Marathon in the Bryce Jordan Center. Over the past 37 years, the students of THON have raised over $50 million dollars and have helped thousands of children and families in their fight against pediatric cancer. Last year alone, THON raised nearly $7.5 million dollars for the Four Diamond's Fund, supporting its mission to conquer childhood cancer. New York area alumni and friends will now have the opportunity to play a role in what has become one of Penn State 's greatest and most unifying traditions.
