THON™ is the largest student-run philanthropy in the world, with more than 16,500 Penn State student volunteers. The Penn State community, including current students and alumni, rallies around those participating in a 46-hour no-sitting, no-sleeping dance marathon. This year, Penn State World Campus has two student dancers representing us at THON:

  • Jenna Baker, a strategic communications graduate student
  • Robert Billings, a software engineering undergraduate student
