EagleTHON at The University of Southern Mississippi held its first in-person dance
marathon since the COVID-19 pandemic during the spring 2023 semester, an annual event
held in coordination with Dance Marathon, a nonprofit, student-led, year-round philanthropic
program created and supported nationally by the Children’s Miracle Network.
The event’s goal is to raise money and awareness for children and their families that
suffer from illnesses and need immediate help and treatment. Funds raised through
EagleTHON go to the local Children’s Miracle Network Hospital, Children’s of Mississippi
Hospital in Jackson, Mississippi.
