Dance Marathon Makes a Difference

Inspire • Summer 2026

Each year, thousands of students across Central Florida unite through Children’s Miracle Network’s Dance Marathon program to raise funds and awareness for Orlando Health Arnold Palmer Hospital for Children.

Some have a personal connection to the hospital, while others are inspired by the simple spirit of giving back. Whatever motivates them, these students lead with compassion and selflessness as they work throughout the year to raise vital funds supporting local patients, often just $1 at a time.

With the support of their leaders, advisors, donors and corporate partners, these students worked tirelessly to bring these events to life. Together, their efforts are making a lasting impact on patients and families in Central Florida.

2,800+
students from K–12 schools and universities across Central Florida participated in Dance Marathon during the 2025–2026 school year.
