NOVAdance is Villanova University's 12-hour philanthropic dance marathon that unifies the entire Villanova community to fight pediatric cancer. Our mission is to support the Andrew McDonough B+ Foundation who provides support for families with children afflicted with childhood cancer across the nation as well as funds medical research. Students spend the academic year raising awareness and funds in the fight against childhood cancer, while hosting outreach events and forming connections with kids, who are our B+ Heroes, and their families. 

Why support NOVAdance?
