Pitt Dance Marathon Aims to Raise $25,000 During Push Week

Pitt Dance Marathon is aiming to raise $25,000 during their push week, having already raised $3,200 dollars and registered 367 new dancers through Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals fundraising program Miracle Network Dance Marathon.

Pitt Dance Marathon is the largest student-run philanthropy at the University of Pittsburgh that works yearlong in an effort to enhance the movement that raises funds and awareness for the Children’s Hospital of Pittsburgh, a Children’s Miracle Network Hospital. PDM is a yearlong fundraising effort supported by thousands of Pitt students, culminating in a 16-hour dance marathon in the spring. Since its inception in 2005, PDM has raised over $600,000 for local charities including Children’s Hospital of Pittsburgh.

This year, Pitt Dance Marathon has once again partnered with Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals and every dollar raised during their event will support kids treated at the Children’s Hospital of Pittsburgh of UPMC.
