Guest Blog Challenge Week 3: Dance Marathon Described in Gifs

For the month of January, YOU have the opportunity to be featured on the Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals blog and on our national Dance Marathon social media channels!

Check out our challenge for week 3 below.

Remember the age-old expression, a gif is worth a thousand words? We want to see how you would explain the experience of being involved in Dance Marathon using gifs (think Buzzfeed article-style).

Consider the entire experience from when you first got involved, to asking people for donations (and that feeling when you received a donation), your first Dance Marathon event, the feeling when you saw the total revealed, and so on. Imagine someone who’s considering getting involved in Dance Marathon reading your post–what would you want them to know about the experience to encourage them to get involved?

If you need some gif inspiration, check out CMN Hospitals Giphy page! If you scroll past the stickers, you’ll find hundreds of adorable gifs from some of our Miracle kids.

How you’ll feel after you write a guest blog…
