Dance Marathon

On Saturday, February 19th, a group of Texas Spirits along with many other dedicated students gave their day to help others by participating in Dance Marathon. Dance Marathon is a fundraiser at The University of Texas that benefits the Dell Children’s Medical Center. This philanthropy event asks dancers to pledge to stand for 12 hours representing the kids that can’t stand for themselves.

One attendee, Lauren Means, said “Dance Marathon was a great experience. Some families that the marathon was benefitting came and spoke to everyone. A little boy of one of the families sang to the crowd. It was beyond adorable and made me feel good about helping the cause.” 

If you couldn’t attend this year you’ll have to sign up next year to break out your dancing shoes and help a really great cause.
