So many people ask me why I put so much of my time and energy into Dance Marathon at the University of Michigan, and I guess it is a valid question. I mean a full course load, internship recruiting, other extracurricular activities, sleep. Without participating in DMUM, I would be living a pretty full life.
Oddly enough, the answer to me is quite simple. The families, and especially the kids. I have 5 very important reasons why I put so much time into DM, and they are Sean, William, Bella, Miles, and Chase. The time I put in is nothing compared to the difference I am making in these kids lives. It is uplifting. It is amazing how much these families appreciate what we do, and that alone is enough for me to continue doing what I do. I love them and I would stand for them for 30 hours, 30 times over.
