I am proud to be part of this student body that financially and emotionally supports Four Diamonds Children and their families. From firsthand experience, I know this generosity means the world to these families, especially the life-long relationships with THON orgs. So, it is out of my awe and appreciation for all that these organizations do for families, students, and the community, that I urge THON to go further. I challenge THON to address and discuss the root causes of this philanthropic need: the healthcare system in the United States.

The celebration kicks off November 8 and will feature the new "One Day We Will Dance In Celebration" campaign.

DonorDrive -- THON's newest fundraising platform -- will create a more compelling call-to-action for volunteers everywhere.

"I THON so that I can bring a smile to children’s faces and comfort and hope to parents. One day we will conquer this disease and I THON for that day."

"When every person walks out of the Bryce Jordan Center after the conclusion of THON Weekend, I want them to feel like they just experienced the most unique and powerful event of their entire life."

"There’s no set way to fundraise or spread awareness, so there’s always something that can be changed for the better or new method to implement."
