St. Jude Up 'til Dawn has been at Ashland University for four years. Last year we raised $29,000, and this year we are hoping to beat that goal. Our main focus, though, is to increase awareness of St. Jude Children's Research Hospital. This year, Up 'Til Dawn will be taking a new approach in its event. They will be finding teams around Ashland University to help raise money and possibly win prizes, such as beats headphones, a month supply of coke products, and even tickets to the AMA's. During the event, everyone will be literally staying "Up 'til Dawn" and helping to raise money for the wonderful non-profit.

Ashland University, ranked in the top 200 colleges and universities in U.S. News and World Report's National Universities category for 2013, is a mid-sized, private university conveniently located a short distance from Akron, Cleveland and Columbus, Ohio.
