Happy THON Day!💙
On March 25, the Pennsylvania House of Representatives officially designated April 8 as THON Day across the commonwealth, recognizing the impact of Penn State THON™ as the world’s largest student-run philanthropy.
From the Bryce Jordan Center to communities nationwide, THON continues to lead the fight against childhood cancer. In 2026 alone, THON raised over $18.8 million, marking its fifth consecutive record-breaking year.
Since 1977, more than $272 million has been raised to support over 4,800 children and families through Four Diamonds, with the help of 16,500+ student volunteers dedicating millions of hours each year.
A fight beyond four years and a mission that continues to grow. 💛
