Description
The Duke-Carolina Student Basketball Marathon is a year-long fundraising event jointly organized by students from Duke University and The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. The marathon is made possible by the Student Basketball Marathon student organization in conjunction with other student organizations. This non-political and non-religious event was created to give students and student organizations from both universities an opportunity to collaborate on an issue which is equally important to both communities- Providing opportunities for children with life-threatening illnesses to develop life skills through athletics. Throughout the year, students from both institutions compete against each other to raise the most money.
Our mission is to empower, inspire, and make a positive difference in the lives of children with life-threatening illnesses by creating opportunities to build successful life skills through athletics.
