"The best part about OPP is the people. The work OPP does is not always glamorous, and yet every single one of our volunteers is passionate about what we do."

"THON is not just an organization to me, but so much more than that, and seeing firsthand the impact we have on the families and volunteers we support only adds to the reason I am here every day."

Proceeds from each ticket sale can be credited to any THON committee, organization, or independent dancer couple.

The committee is intended for freshmen interested in getting involved with THON but missed the original committee member deadline in October.

Pembleton leads a 250-person team of volunteers to help "fuel the fight" and create relationships between THON and its partners.
