The University of Northern Iowa Dance Marathon strives to provide hope and comfort for families with children facing life-threatening illnesses by raising money for the Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals and hosting events that heighten student and community awareness. Join us in the fight against life-threatening childhood illnesses and injuries.
OUR MISSION
UNI Dance Marathon is a student-led organization that raises money for the University of Iowa Stead Family Children’s Hospital and the Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals. Throughout the year, all money that is raised through UNI Dance Marathon is allocated to four areas at the hospital: research, education, equipment and enhancements.
WHO WE SUPPORT
The University of Iowa Stead Family Children’s Hospital first opened in 1919 and since then has helped countless children with crisis of traumatic injury and life-threatening illness, from birth defects to developmental disabilities. While we provide financial support to the hospital, our organization also provides emotional support to the families affected by childhood illnesses and injuries.
MIRACLE FAMILIES
Since our creation in 2011, our mission has always been to put our families at the center of everything we do. Over the years, more families have allowed us to become a part of their lives and walk alongside them, no matter what they are going through. We encourage you to explore our website and learn more about who we are, what we do, and who we fight for.
