  • 2/11 HuskyTHON's $100K in One Day

    TODAY UConn students across campus are attempting to raise $100,000 in ONE day for the kids at Connecticut Children’s Medical Center through HuskyTHON!

    HuskyTHON is a year-long fundraising effort that culminates in an 18-hour dance marathon, raising money for Connecticut Children’s Medical Center in Hartford. All money raised at HuskyTHON is donated to the Medical Center. Last year, HuskyTHON had nearly 2,500 student participants and raised over $560,000 for the hospital! This year, HuskyTHON is taking place on February 20th and we are hoping to far surpass that fundraising total!

    To donate:

    1. Go to http://events.dancemarathon.com/index.cfm

    2. In the Fundraiser Search box, search “Faculty Fund”. The first search result should show the “HuskyTHON Faculty Fund” logo.

    3. Click “Donate Now” on the right using our secure server!


    Again, please consider donating to HuskyTHON to help the students reach their goal of $100,000 in ONE day! We thank you for supporting Connecticut Children’s Medical Center through HuskyTHON!
