Hempfield Area students raised more than $61,500 for the Four Diamonds nonprofit through their 2023-2024 Mini-THON fundraisers that culminated in a 12-hour event on April 5.
Mini-THON, a high school version of the popular Penn State fundraiser that raises money for pediatric cancer patients and families, raised $57,600 last year at Hempfield Area School District.
Throughout this past year, the Mini-THON group held a cancer awareness football game, collected donations around the Hempfield and Greensburg area and hosted a joint volleyball tournament in conjunction with Greensburg Salem School District’s Mini-THON team.
