$10.00
Dance Marathon is a nationwide movement involving college and high school students at more than 150 schools across the country, all raising money for the Children's Miracle Network Hospital in their community. WYWLA will be partnering with NCSU to raise funds to support the Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals. Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals is the alliance of premier children’s hospitals in North America. It is a non-profit organization dedicated to helping kids by raising funds and awareness for 170 children’s hospitals across the United States and Canada. Since 1983, these non-profit hospitals have provided the finest care, research and community outreach to help millions of children with diseases and injuries of every kind, raising more than $5 billion. The donations have supported everything from research and training to equipment purchases to uncompensated care to measures to enhance the atmosphere at the hospitals.
Students who are attending the dance will report to the auditorium until 11:55am. SGA has planned games and activities in addition to a lot of dancing! The entrance fee is $10.00 and it includes a drink, snack, and pizza. All money raised will be donated to a local Children's Miracle Network Hospital.
DANCE MARATHON--HELP WANTED
The Student Government Association (SGA) has been given a challenge, and as leaders, the students are rising to that challenge! Despite the last minute notification and the missed days due to weather and some staff reorganization within SGA, the girls have overcome and prevailed! We have teamed up with NC State and are excited to be able to sponsor such a great cause, and promise it to be fun and exciting!
We need your help for this to be possible. Just as the Winter Dance, we will be having pizza and snacks as well as drinks, but the food will be included in the $10 ticket sale price. Because this event is a charity fundraiser, the charge for admission/food will all be donated to the Children's Miracle Network.
In addition to food donations, we are also in need of parent and adult volunteers to assist with every aspect of the dance from money collection to chaperoning.
Please see the signup below and consider helping out to make this a successful event for the Children's Miracle Network! The students and staff thank you ahead of time!
