Alumni Challenge

The Alumni Challenge is a geographically based campaign that challenges our Penn State Alumni Community to see which region can raise the most money in support of THON. Gather with your friends, co-workers, local alumni chapter, etc. to organize an event and spread THON’s mission nationwide by bringing THON to your area. Put your community on the map for THON 2023 by participating in the Alumni Challenge.

The Alumni Challenge Map allows for everyone in the THON community to see how THON's mission has spread across the world! Each ribbon represents a different donation from an alumni of Penn State. The slider feature allows for a way to recognize how the THON community has grown since the beginning of the Alumni Challenge as we continue to fight to find a cure for childhood cancer!

Year:

There are four inspiring levels of gifts which provide you the ability to give smiles, give love, give dreams, or give life to those who need it most. Each level is associated with a distinct dollar value. Those who choose to donate will be recognized on THON's Donor and Alumni Recognition wall displayed in the Bryce Jordan Center on THON Weekend along with their corresponding donation level. Donate to the Alumni Challenge today and give smiles, love, dreams, and life to our families.

By achieving each level will result in recognition on THON’s Donor and Alumni Recognition wall displayed in the BJC THON Weekend!
