Over the next several weeks, a large portion of our Dance Marathon events will be taking place. As we head into main event season, please remind your teams that we have a host of resources available to both Dance Marathon students and Program Directors and to lean into your Cause Partnership Manager. We’re thankful for all that hard work on fundraising and recruitment strategy, and we can’t wait to see the results.
