Mini THON!


The Penn State IFC/Panhellenic Dance Marathon, affectionately known as THON, is a yearlong effort to raise funds and awareness for the fight against pediatric cancer. Since 1977, THON has raised more than $127 million for the Four Diamonds Fund at Penn State Hershey Children's Hospital. THON 2016 is taking place from February 19th-21st at Penn State's Bryce Jordan Center. However, our residents at Wellspring won't be able to make it to the actual event, so we hosted our second-annual Dance MaraTHON (or mini-THON) on site!

This year, members of the PSU THON committee paid a special visit to Wellspring, as did family members and friends. Our residents danced for 30 minutes, hydrated, and then danced for 20 more minutes! Juniper Village at Brookline is also a corporate sponsor of this year's THON activities.
