Description
DanceBlue
is a University of Kentucky student-run organization that fundraises year-round
and culminates in a 24-hour no sitting, no sleeping dance marathon. DanceBlue
raises funds and awareness for the fight against pediatric cancer while
supporting patients and families affected by it. The money raised through
DanceBlue is donated to the Golden Matrix Fund, established to support the kids
of the DanceBlue Hematology/Oncology Clinic at Kentucky Children's Hospital,
both today and well into the future. The Golden Matrix Fund supports
groundbreaking pediatric oncology research, enhances the patient experience,
and supports Clinic Operations. DanceBlue will continue to spread joy to those
fighting, to persevere in memory of the lives lost, and to celebrate every
victory until the battle against pediatric cancer is won.
A
percentage of net proceeds for DanceBlue will be invested in perpetuity to
support pediatric cancer research and support.
