Hey There!
It's my last year!
That thought is crazy for me to even process! This has become my passion, and I will always be an advocate for these kids! This year I am determined to leave with a bang. My starting goal is $5,000, however, if I raise $7,500 I will be cutting my hair on stage for the kids!
I am currently a senior at Indiana University Purdue University of Indianapolis where I am working towards a degree in Accounting. I have hopes to one day work as a financial advisor in a hospital setting. I fell in love with Riley Dance Marathon and hope to continue to work hand and hand with how Riley Dance Marathons directly benefit the patients and their families.
This will be my 4th year participating in a Riley Dance Marathon, but only my second year participating in the IUPUI Jagathon. This year is no different from any other year, and I will be standing on my feet for those who can't. Together we can save kids' lives - but I need your help!
While participating in Jagathon: IUPUI's Dance Marathon, we join together to raise funds and awareness for the Herman B Wells Center for Pediatric Research at Riley Hospital for Children, our local Children's Miracle Network Hospital. I am committed to making an impact on the lives of the kids and families in our community who receive treatment at Riley Hospital for Children.
When I transferred schools two years ago I was unsure of where I would fit in. Jagathon has become my home away from home, along with helped me find my purpose on campus and in the community. This is a movement where every student is passionate about one main thing, (raising money for pediatric research). Be apart of the reason that we can give the kids at Riley Hospital more days to smile, and the reason that families get more days to spend with their loved ones.
Here's how it works
