MAKE A DONATION Thank you for visiting Phi Beta Lambda's THON page!

PBL works year round to help support Penn State THON. As an organization with almost 100 members, we are able to find various ways to contribute to THON. Whether it be through ribboning, online auctions, trivia events, or posting on social media, our members work to continue to find new opportunities to support such a wonderful organization. Our efforts would not be completed without people like you! Thank you for all that you do support PBL's THON efforts. You are what helps us find success in our efforts every year!
By supporting PBL THON, you will be joining a community committed to conquering childhood cancer.



Our Families
Our Organization has the privilege to directly support two THON families. Rees Parham and Miranda Harmon's families help to show us what our "big business, bigger family" motto really means. The opportunity to be a part of THON and four diamonds runs much deeper than strictly financial support. The true power of the organization is seen in the connection between student and family. Your support to both PBL THON and THON in general helps facilitate relationships that can last a lifetime.
Phi Beta Lambda Auction Benefitting THON
This semester we had the opportunity to create an online auction that we ran through instagram! Here are some awesome pieces that a few of our brother made.


This blanket was created by Amanda Gallina! Amanda was PBL's president this past year and has made countless contributions to PBL itself as well as PBL THON. She is an accounting major and will be graduating this semester. We will miss her but thank her for everything she has done for us the past 4 years of her involvement!

This shirt was made by the one and only... Mary Testa! Mary is PBL's Family Relations chair this year. She has worked tirelessly this year to work with our members and families to create a comfortable way to communicate with each other. Mary is a Biobehavioral Health major and is also graduating in the spring (please don't go)!

This next piece was created by Maddie Poli! Maddie has a gift for creativity which can be seen in the piece above. She loves to go to local thrift stores and find items that she can "flop" into works of art. This piece is a great example of what she does. We thank her for her donation and are excited to see what else she will create!
Our next auction will be taking place February 6th-13th!! This will be one of our very last organized fundraisers. Although it won't be your last opportunity to donate, it will be your last time to participate in a fundraiser put on by this years THON chairs.
Follow @pblthonauction on instagram to receive updates and to participate in the auction!

Phi Beta Lambda is a Penn State organization that participates in THON, in addition to our organization's primary purpose. Throughout the year, Organizations contribute to the efforts of thousands of Penn State students across all campuses by facilitating fundraisers, as well as providing emotional support to Four Diamonds Families.
