Take the Fight Beyond Four Years with DMAIG's New Advocate Network

5/6/2020

0 Comments

 
We’re so excited to announce the launch of the DMAIG Advocate Network! The DMAIG Advocate Network empowers THON alumni to build bridges in their communities, foster strong alumni connections, and create opportunities to grow support for THON across the nation. 

So many of our incredible alumni do this on a daily basis, with little to no support or recognition. It is time that we encourage and empower these individuals to continue to take action in the fight against childhood cancer, beyond their four years at Penn State.

DMAIG Advocates will work in meaningful ways to raise awareness and resources to help conquer childhood cancer, and play a leadership role in engaging local alumni to actively join the fight. Below are just a few of the simple, yet effective, ways that advocates will support THON’s mission: 
  • Share DMAIG and THON posts on social media.
  • Create an alumni online giving page to benefit THON and invite friends and family to give.
  • Solicit your company for corporate matching, donation, or fundraiser. 
  • Write dancer mail and kids mail for THON Weekend.
  • Organize a Hope From Coast to Coast event in your local community.
  • Plan and execute a THON Nation event. 

​We’ve already begun reviewing and accepting individuals into the network. Charlie Shuman (HHD ‘18), pictured below, is excited to begin his term as a DMAIG Advocate. 

​"I absolutely love sharing THON’s mission with my friends, so I figured why not share that excitement with other alumni and contribute more of my ideas to DMAIG and the entire THON community?” Charlie said. "The fight against childhood cancer isn't over, and I'm honored that I can continue to support these children and families as an alumnus."

Interested in applying to continue the fight against childhood cancer? Apply here!
Curious and have more questions about the network? Email DMAIG’s Donor Relations Director, Lauren Nelson, at donor.relations@dmaig.org.
