One of The University of Georgia's largest student-run organizations raised over a million dollars for Children's Healthcare of Atlanta.
On March 28th, the university organization UGA Miracle held their 31st annual Dance Marathon. During the 13.5 hour event, more than 2,000 students, faculty, staff, and community members participated in the dancing fundraiser. Those who attended the event were able to enjoy silent discos, live music, and group games.
Over $1.4 million was raised by the end of the night. All of the proceeds raised will go to Children’s Healthcare of Atlanta.
UGA Miracle is a completely student-run philanthropic organization. They fundraise throughout the year, however, the annual Dance Marathon is their largest event.
