After 46 hours of dancing, THON 2026 revealed it raised $18,841,726.53, For The Kids!

The total breaks THON 2025’s record of $17,737,040.93 by over a million dollars.

Since the start of Four Diamonds and THON’s partnership in 1977, the pair have raised over $237 million, not including this year’s fundraising efforts. Penn State students will continue to dance every year until we can dance in celebration of a cure, For The Kids.

Fundraising efforts for THON 2027 will begin on Monday in pursuit of a cure. Folks can relive all of THON 2026 with Onward State here and on our live blog.
