Thon Express

ABOUT THON EXPRESS

The THON Express is a 135-mile run that was created with the intention of bridging the gap between
the families on the 7th floor at the Hershey Medical Center in Hershey, PA and the Dancers at the
Penn State IFC/Panhellenic Dance Marathon (aka THON). THON is a year round fundraising event
benefiting The Four Diamonds Fund, Conquering Childhood Cancer. Over the past 34 years, the students
of THON have raised more than $41 million and have helped thousands of children and families fight pediatric cancer.
