ASU Dance Marathon 2014 registration now available

For the second year in a row, ASU will join a nationwide movement that includes more than 150 schools across the country. The 2014 ASU Dance Marathon is a student-run philanthropic effort to raise funds and awareness for the Phoenix Children's Hospital through a 12-hour dance-a-thon. 

The marathon will take place from 2 p.m. to 2 a.m., Feb. 22.

"Last year we raised more than $58,000 and had 1,000 students dancing for kids," says student leader, Zahra Giga. "This year, we want to double the money raised and attendance."

Every dollar raised by Dance Marathon has a direct impact on the patients and families at Phoenix Children’s Hospital. As one of the largest children’s hospitals in the nation, Phoenix Children’s has been providing hope and healing to patients and families for 30 years. All proceeds will help provide the best possible health care to children in Arizona. 

All students are invited to register online and help reach this year's goal of $100,000. Students can start a team, join an existing team or sign up as an individual dancer.
