Sparkathon is the official dance marathon event for the University of Illinois at Chicago! Year-round fundraising culminates with our dance marathon event in the spring. For the 2020-2021 year, we are supporting UI Health's Long Term Survivors of Childhood Cancer Clinic, with the goal of safely bringing the UIC community together to support pediatric cancer survivors through fundraising.
In 2020, Sparkathon raised $6,363 for pediatric cancer survivors at UI Health! In the coming year, we hope to maintain the same momentum and involve more of the UIC community in the process; help us reach our fundraising goal of $10,000!
We sat down with Christine, a cancer survivor, to talk about her experience with pediatric cancer clinics.
