Hundreds of students participated in RocketTHON on Saturday, raising funds and awareness for Nationwide Children’s Hospital in downtown Toledo. This year’s event raised more than $11,600, and since its inception 25 years ago, the annual dance marathon has raised more than $1 million to support children’s health.

UToledo students Joelle Obri and Marquan Denby work to get the crowd excited during the 2025 RockeTHON.
