StevensTHON hosts inaugural Snow Ball

On December 4, StevensTHON hosted their first-ever Snow Ball. StevensTHON is a student organization that raises awareness and money for Children’s Specialized Hospital, the local Children’s Miracle Network Hospital in New Brunswick, NJ, and is part of the Miracle Network Dance Marathon movement across multiple schools. The main reason for hosting the StevensTHON Snow Ball was to put together a winter-themed semi-formal event for all Stevens students to enjoy all while supporting an amazing cause. Through a partnership with Hudson Dorms, $1260 was successfully raised during the event, and $1111 was matched by Hudson Dorms. 

According to Avery Murillo, the Internal Director and Julia Baber, the Executive Director, students dined on food donated from Myron Mixon’s Pitmaster, Fat Taco, and H&S Giovanni’s Restaurant & Pizzeria. The event also served dessert with Krispy Kreme donuts. But if students weren’t interested in jam donuts, then they could still jam with student DJ Jake Laifer. For keepsakes, there was also a photo booth onsite, as well a raffles with prizes donated by Athleta, Wicked Scents, The Studio, Galatea, Stevens Campus Bookstore, and AirPods donated by Hudson Dorms. There were also fundraising activities to raise money for the Children’s Specialized Hospital in New Brunswick, New Jersey. Prizes included gift cards to CHOC·O·PAIN for the Fundraising Royalty, the highest fundraisers this week, and gift cards to Urban Coalhouse to whoever raised the most money each hour.
