P4K- Coming Your Way

Get your dancing shoes and donations ready, because it’s time for P4K.

Pace 4 Kids, better known as P4K is a dance marathon put on by Pace University at the Pleasantville campus, which raises money for the Maria Fareri Children’s Hospital at Westchester Medical Center. The money raised goes towards funding and research for the kids and families at the Medical Center who are, unfortunately, going through the experience of their children having cancer. This is the fourth year that Pace has put on this event, and in the past they have raised more than $85,000 for the cause.

For this dance marathon, there is eight hours of dancing and entertainment, from 3:00 p.m. to 11:00 p.m. for students, faculty, community members, and some of the kids and families the event is fundraising for. This year, the event will take place on November 19th in Kessel Student Center. P4K is a great way to have fun with your friends for an evening, while also giving back to your local community.
