Dance Marathons Rally Student Support for Children’s National Hospital

Student leaders from across the Washington, D.C., region united to support the health and well-being of kids in their communities and around the world. Throughout the year, they volunteered their time and talents to raise funds, culminating in a dance marathon event at each of their schools.

More than 1,500 students from four local universities and a high school raised $350,000 to support Children’s National Hospital patients and families. They hosted fundraising events throughout the year in advance of the spring dance marathons.
