Why Do You Support SNCDM?
"I support SNC Dance Marathon because it not only supports the Children's Hospitals and Miracle Network. DM allows young adults the opportunity to be part of the change they wish to see in the world." - William Falk
"How could I not support such a worthy cause? The dedication our SNC DM members exhibit on a daily basis is a true testament to our SNC's call to serve others. As an educator, faculty, and SNC community member, I am humbled by every action the members of this organization take to help children." - Dr. Erica Southworth
"SNC Dance Marathon and the larger Children's Miracle Network is a great organization dedicated to helping children with illnesses. The students at SNC work very hard to be successful in their quest to raise awareness and funds for this cause. I enjoy their enthusiasm, drive and optimism and want to support and assist them in any way possible.
My father's sister, Cathy, my namesake, died of Children's Leukemia when she was 5 years old. There was no cure at that time, though my grandparents took her all over the country to the best hospitals. The medical community has made great strides in finding treatments and cures for childhood diseases and I am proud to support a group that strives to assist with that quest so that there is hope and help for the children and their families, now and in the future." - Cathy Lau

"After watching a video that outlined the history of Dance Marathon, I was completely hooked. I was in awe that a group of college students could create such an incredible event to honor the life of Ryan White. My love for Dance Marathon only grew from there! I am forever grateful that Dance Marathon allowed me to connect with so many SNC students, local community members, and families who were treated at the Children's Hospital of Wisconsin. However, after what felt like a million meetings, countless hours spent with my "DM fam", and most importantly, getting to know our amazing miracle families, my time as a committee member came to an end. I continue to dance (and support Miracle Network Dance Marathon) because I know this fight is nowhere near being done. I dance to celebrate the victories, honor the losses, and support those that are still continuing to fight. I dance for all of the families that possess more strength than I could ever imagine. I dance FOR THE KIDS!" - Taylor Baltus
