Penn State’s annual THON Weekend will take place in just a few short weeks. It’s always a fun-filled and oddly sobering weekend, and no one knows this better than senior Sabrina Zanolini, who’s attended THON’s most recent 20 celebrations.
Zanolini’s family was first paired with the Four Diamonds Foundation in 2000 after her sister was diagnosed with an inoperable brain tumor. The Zanolini family attended its first THON in 2001. Sadly, this was the only THON Zanolini was able to experience with her sister, who died later that year.
