Thon Fundraising Begins – Goal is $30k
By Mark Frome, Thon Chairman
2004
Thon fundraising is underway. Kappa Sigma and the Society of Women Engineers have a goal of $30,000 for the 2005 Thon.
The dance marathon will be held February 18 to 20, 2005. This year, Kappa Sigma qualifies for three dance marathon couples.
Thon is sponsored by Penn State’s IFC and Panhellenic Councils and is the largest student-run philanthropy in the world. Since 1973, Thon has raised over $33 million for kids with cancer. The 48-hour, no-sitting, no-sleeping dance marathon benefits the Four Diamond’s Fund.
To send a check (made out to “Penn State Dance Marathon”) through the mail, please send the check to: Penn State Annual Fund The Penn State University One Old Main University Park, PA 16802-1506. And make sure that you mention that Kappa Sigma/PSU is to be given credit for your gift!
Be sure to look for Kappa Sigma canning in your area.
