Have you danced or volunteered for THON? Would you like to share uplifting messages and meaningful advice with our dancers or families? Dancer Mail and Kid’s Mail are wonderful ways to stay connected and continue your involvement with THON.
There is no better way to motivate dancers or connect with families than by sharing your personal experiences and memories from your time in the THON community. Take this opportunity to inspire others through your stories, encouragement, and support. If you have any questions or need assistance contacting the organization you were once a part of to obtain dancer information, please contact alumni.campaigns@thon.org.
To submit Alumni Dancer Mail or Kids’ Mail, please use the links provided in the sections below.
Looking for a way to be involved in THON Weekend? Dancer Mail Call is a great opportunity to support and uplift our dancers as they take a stand For The Kids®. The THON community asks you either mail in or upload mail to be distributed to dancers throughout the weekend.

To ensure that THON is able to donate 96 cents of every dollar raised to Four Diamonds at Penn State Health Children’s Hospital, we heavily rely on donor support. These donations provide us the resources to create endless memories for our Four Diamonds families & foster a deep love & connection to our mission for our volunteers through Pre-THON Events, alternative fundraisers, & THON Weekend.
