Penn State’s THON 2018 went from Feb. 16-18 and it was revealed on Sunday that more than $10 million was raised this year.

The Penn State IFC/Panhellenic Dance Marathon (THON) raises money, awareness and provides support for children and families to fight pediatric cancer. The support THON receives and provides helps to conduct research at Penn State Children’s Hospital.

This year, THON 2018 raised $10,151,663.93.

According to THON.org, it is the largest student-run philanthropy in the world and has raised $147 million since it began in 1973. That total came prior to Sunday’s announcement of more than $10 million.

The annual dance marathon — which takes place for 46 hours — has a number of performances that take place over the weekend at Penn State’s Bryce Jordan Center.
