Last year my high school did a similar event called 'Let's Kiss Childhood Cancer Goodbye'. We raised money for an entire week by having coin wars and sending out letters to friends and family. There were three king and queen candidates elected and throughout the week students put their spare change in buckets to vote for the king and queen. At the end of the week we had a rally where there was food and drinks, music was played and students could help promote awareness of childhood cancer.

“Fight the yawn – stay awake to cure childhood cancer”
Thursday, November 6, 2008 Lindenwood University hosted Up 'til Dawn to help raise funds to fight childhood cancer for St. Jude Children's Research Hospital. This program took place at different universities all across the nation. Through various activities, students help raise awareness for St. Jude Children's Research Hospital. To wrap up the program campuses host an all night event and stay 'Up 'til Dawn' in honor of the brave patients fighting cancer. Although the students at Lindenwood did not stay up all night, many students helped promote and raise awareness for the hospital. They also sent out letters to family and friends asking for donations to help provide more research to beat childhood cancer.

I think this is such an awesome cause, I loved that you included it in your project.
I participated in Up Til Dawn last year. I think it's a really great cause, and St. Jude really benefits from the donations!
