Penn State hosted THON, the world's largest student-run philanthropy, Friday-Sunday at the Bryce Jordan Center.
[ MORE: Watch live webcam of THON ]
The 46-hour event, starting at 6 p.m. ET Friday and running through 4 p.m. Sunday, raised $13,026,653.23 for the fight against pediatric cancer, with all benefits going to the Four Diamonds Fund out of Penn State Hershey Medical Center.
A year ago, THON raised a record $13,343,517.33.
Congratulations to all of those who participated and donated.
