Fostering Community Leaders
Dance Marathon gives students an incredible project-based learning opportunity. Students learn about the importance of service and philanthropy while improving their leadership and professional skills, including working as a team, time management, and project management. Many large, national philanthropic events look very similar across the country, but with Dance Marathon, there is the opportunity to make an event that truly fits into and celebrates the culture of an individual campus. Our staff collaborates with university and school administrators to provide educationally purposeful advising that promotes student leadership development.
