You'll have the best one night stand of your life!

The UNC Dance Marathon is a yearlong student fundraising effort for the N.C. Children's Hospital. In its first ten years at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, the Marathon has raised more than $1.6 million, including more than $320,000 last year alone.

The “For the Kids Fund,” which has received funds from the Marathon since its inception, allows parents to focus on what’s important—their sick children.  The "For the Kids Fund" helps cover costs not associated with insurance or Medicaid. For many of the families at the N.C. Children's Hospital, these costs present an extra burden. Such costs should not be a concern for parents when the real focus is the health of their children.The Marathon also helps sponsor Parents Night Out—a unique dinner held every Tuesday night at the hospital to allow families to enjoy a complimentary hot meal served by our volunteers. Recent grants from the Marathon have also gone to the N.C. Children’s HeartCenter and the hospital’s Healthy Steps Program.

Sign up today... it's For the Kids!
