THON announced today it will replace PASS with the THON Weekend Dashboard, or Dash for shore, which is an entirely new system built from the ground up by THON's Tech Committee to handle all of the technology needs during THON Weekend.
"This year’s theme is about the potential to change someone’s life, make a positive impact in their day, and take steps towards finding a cure. It means having the ability to have another day, smell the fresh air, and smile."
"This is something that we hope will become an annual fundraising push for all of THON and we're very optimistic to see what the future holds for the campaign."
"I THON so that each volunteer can be impacted by something much greater than themselves, and learn to be thankful for all of the many problems that they will never have to worry about."
"On Finance you have the unique opportunity to physically touch and see the impact that this organization is making on a daily basis and know that those dollars will go towards fighting childhood cancer."
The partnership between the two organizations could signal a shift in THON's culture away from the traditional stark competition between organizations and more toward a collaboration to achieve the same goals.
