Share Your Spark for THON™ 2026

As we begin the THON™ 2026 year, the THON community encourages everyone to share their spark and highlight why THON is so important to every involved member. On July 31^st, the Ignite the Fight campaign commences with an Instagram recap on @pennstatethon and the opportunity to “Share Your Spark”.

Share Your Spark encourages every individual to reflect on what drives their passion for THON. Whether it is a personal connection to childhood cancer, a commitment to service, or the joy of being part of a community fighting for something bigger than themselves, everyone has a spark. By sharing these moments, you can inspire others to get involved and amplify the impact of THON’s mission. Our individual sparks fuel a fire of hope and strength for every THON child and family. 

Social media is one of the most powerful tools we have to raise awareness and inspire others to get involved with THON. Platforms like Instagram and Facebook allow you to reach hundreds of people with a single post, and your story could be the one that inspires someone else to get involved. Share what drives your passion for THON whether it comes from a personal connection, a powerful experience, or the inspiration you find in the community around you. Include photos or videos from past THON events or your favorite THON moments. Not only does this spread awareness, but it also creates a space where we can all celebrate the passion and purpose that drives us.

Every spark matters. Your voice, story, and reason for joining this fight have the power to inspire others.  By sharing your passion, you help to build a stronger community united in hope and determination. Together, we can ignite the fight that brings lasting change and brightens the future for all those impacted.
