Mini THON

The Penn State IFC/Panhellenic Dance Marathon is not the only organization funding The Four Diamonds Fund and its fight against pediatric cancer. Schools across the state and surrounding region hold multi-hour dance marathons, or Mini-THONs, to support The Fund.

Mini-THONs, which replicate THON on a smaller scale, donate the money raised directly to The Four Diamonds Fund. In 2008, Mini-THONs accounted for 10% of total donations to The Four Diamonds Fund. More than 50 schools participate in the Mini-THON program, which entails creating committees, organizing students, planning entertainment for the event, fundraising and more. To date, these high schools, middle schools and elementary schools have raised nearly $4 Million For The Kids and their totals continue to increase!

From 2008-2009 the Four Diamonds Mini-THONs raised more than $792,917.40!
