4. What is Jagathon?
• What is Jagathon?
– IUPUI‟s largest Philanthropic event in which students raise money
for Riley Children's Hospital. During Jagathon, dancers stay on
their feet to show support for the families and children of Riley
Hospital and to generate awareness about the cause.
– "We stand up for those who can't stand for themselves."
– The night consists of: interaction with Riley children and family
members, special guests from campus and the local community,
diverse selection of music, loads of fun games and food. The money
raised will help Riley's Palliative Care program.
