I've got it for you. It's THON!
THON, (aka Penn State Dance Marathon) is a 46 hour NO sitting, NO sleeping, ALL dancing event that raises millions for the Penn State Hershey's pediatric cancer patients and the Four Diamonds Fund to help the families. Yes...NO BREAKS for the over 700 dancers and the thousands of committee members that THON runs by. It is the largest student run philanthropy in the world. (Not bad for a school mainly known for its football and drinking abilities!)
As an alum, its still one of the best experiences I ever had there. It is truly amazing to see hundreds of students tough it out all weekend, and they train like athletes beforehand to be able to do this. In the end, i've never had any of them say that it wasn't worth it...even though the dancers sleep for almost 2 days afterward!
Please go to www.thon.org to check it out or donate to the cause. Someday we will dance in celebration, until then we dance for a cure. FOR THE KIDS!
Hope this helps!!
