UNC Dance Marathon:

There is one night a year when the entire University stops...and takes a stand FOR THE KIDS! If you're a dancer in the 2010 UNC Dance Marathon, then sign up for a Firstgiving page. This is the easiest way for friends and family to donate to your cause and help you raise at least $150 for the kids.

If you aren't a dancer, but would like to donate to the UNC Dance Marathon, you can do that from this page as well. Below you will find more information about our organization!

The UNC Dance Marathon is a yearlong student fundraiser started 11 years ago. Since its start, more than $2 million have been raised to benefit N.C. Children's Hospital. Last year alone, more than $394,000 was raised. This year, 1600 students have made a commitment to stand on their feet for 24 hours and raise at least $150. Join us in making 2010 the best year the UNC Dance Marathon has seen yet!

In the hospital:

Since 1998, the UNC Dance Marathon has continued to expand its presence within N.C. Children's Hospital. The For the Kids Fund was established by the UNC Dance Marathon at its start, and it is still in existance today. The For the Kids Fund provides for expenses not covered by insurance or Medicaid that families may not otherwise be able to afford along with their child's hospital bills. By helping to relieve families from everyday financial burdens, the fund allows them to focus on what really matters: caring for their children. Social workers within the N.C. Children's Hospital allocate the funds to families on an as-needed basis. Based on private conversations with families, social workers are able to determine where to disperse the For the Kids Fund.

The UNC Dance Marathon also partners with Healthy Steps, Parents Night Out, the Center for Clinical Excellence, and other initiatives within N.C. Children's Hospital.
