what is AggieTHON?

AggieTHON, formerly known as Aggie Dance Marathon, is the culmination of a year of hard work raising funds and awareness for childhood illness and injury, where students commit to stand for 6 hours in honor of those who can't, and celebrate all that we've done throughout the year.

Students get to meet miracle families treated at McLane Children's Medical Center,

participate in games and dancing, enjoy entertainment,

and reveal our fundraising total for the year.

what is Aggie Miracle?

Aggie Miracle was established as a student organization at Texas A&M in 2017. The first Aggie Dance Marathon (ADM) was held in 2014 by the women of Aggie Belles, where they raised over $33,000 for McLane Children's Medical Center.

After the 4th ADM, Aggie Miracle was created to serve as an organization

focused on raising funds and bringing awareness to

our local Children's Miracle Network hospital!

Miracle Network Dance Marathon is a movement benefiting Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals, a non-profit organization that raises funds and awareness for more than 170 pediatric hospitals across North America. 

 

In 1991, students at Indiana University founded dance marathon in the memory of Ryan White, a fellow student who passed away from HIV/AIDS. The program now spans North America, uniting university and high school students while benefiting hundreds of hospitals and countless kids in the United States and Canada. Each organization is entirely student-run and 100% of all funds raised go directly to the school's local Children’s Miracle Network Hospital. 

 

Students involved in a campus’ dance marathon organization spend a year gaining leadership, teamwork, and nonprofit business experience while raising funds and awareness for their local Children’s Miracle Network Hospital. Their year culminates with a large event (the dance marathon) on each campus where students get to meet patient families treated at their local hospital, participate in games and dancing, enjoy entertainment, and reveal their fundraising total.

 

Since inception, Miracle Network Dance Marathon has raised more than $300 million for kids across North America- ensuring that no child or family fights pediatric illness or injury alone. Aggie Miracle and AggieTHON is proud to bring this incredible event and movement to Texas A&M University’s Campus.
