UDance 2023: Changing Seasons, Changing Lives

On Sunday, April 23rd, thousands of students gathered at the Bob Carpenter Center for UDance 2023. We shared laughs, smiles, and 12 hours of dancing with our B+ Heroes and families. At the end of the night, we revealed the fundraising total for UDance 2023! Throughout the 12 hours of dancing, we had a hair donation station, silent disco, a line dance every hour, a B+ Hero talent show, student and community performers, participant competitions, flash fundraising, rave hour, and more!

Thanks to all of our participants and donors this year, we raised $1,784,082.81 for our B+ Heroes.

But we will continue to fight through the changing seasons until there is a cure.
