The University of Toledo

Dance Marathon

ALL YOU HAVE TO DO IS DANCE TO SUPPORT THE KIDS!

Dance Marathon is a 18 hour long event where over 600 students dance all night long to help raise funds for Mercy Children's Hospital in downtown Toledo which is in association with the Children's Miracle Network. Since 2001, students, faculty, family, and friends have come together to raise $398,928.04. In 2011, The University of Toledo Dance Marathon raised $59,183.00! This money has all gone directly to Mercy Children's Hospital for new research and technology needed to uphold the standard of care for the kids.

During the course of the event we have a wide variety of activities the participants can partake in that range from bands and entertainment to competitions and building family relations. Every year we have about five or more miracle families from the hospital that are present through the entire event. They are the best support system for the students when everyone is focused on staying on their feet for 18 hours just for the kids.

Thanks for your support!  This year Dance Marathon raised over $68,000...FOR THE KIDS!
