This year’s William Penn Senior High School MiniTHON was a great success! Thanks to the incredible efforts of the WPSHS MiniTHON Club and National Honor Society, the event was filled with energy, inspiration, and fun from start to finish. A grand total of $4,202 was raised this year for Four Diamonds, making a meaningful impact in the fight against childhood cancer.

A special highlight of the event occurred during Family Hour. During this time, WPSHS 10th grade student, A’Niah Butler, courageously shared her personal journey of battling cancer while receiving treatment at Penn State Hershey Hospital. A’Niah’s story truly embodies the mission and heart behind MiniTHON.

Thank you to everyone who contributed to this year’s event!
