Axis
Join us on February 17, 2023
MAKE A DONATIONAxis is a Special Interest Organization at Penn State whose sole purpose is to support THON and our Four Diamonds Families. Throughout the year, Special Interest Organizations contribute to the efforts of thousands of Penn State Students by facilitating fundraisers and providing emotional support to our families.
Axis aims to set the standard for hard work and persistence in the fight against pediatric cancer. With passion and dedication, our mission is to support the Calvanelli family, surpass our fundraising goals, and build lasting relationships - For The Kids® and for a cure!
Axis is luck enough to be paired with an amazing family that continues to show us the strength to keep fighting against pediatric cancer. Ayrton was diagnosed with a brain tumor when he was just two years old and immediately had brain surgery. He is now 14 and continues to conquer the challenges brought upon him after suffering a stroke post-surgery. The remaining tumor is currently stable and he fights like a superhero every single day. With the support of his younger brother, Declan, his amazing parents, and Axis, Ayrton is unstoppable!
Last year Axis raised just over $44,000, bringing our lifetime total to $488,853! We were allocated 5 dancers to represent our organization on the floor during THON Weekend!
Axis is excited to continue to support THON's mission this year! Through hard work and dedication, Axis will remain dedicated in the fight against childhood cancer and will continue to support our THON families! We need your help to continue to create the financial support that this cause deserves!
Thank you in advance!
