Snapchat Takeover: Wake N’ Shake

The Wake Forest community raised more than $330,000 to support cancer research during this year’s Wake ‘N Shake fundraiser event – a 12-hour dance marathon benefitting the Brian Piccolo Cancer Research Fund. That made for a high-energy Snapchat takeover. Check it out!

Community members came together to stand in support of those affected by cancer, asking for donations in support of their participation. Wake ‘N Shake, a student-organized event, started 12 years ago and continues to grow in participation and donations each year. The event also included live music and entertainment, games, competitions and special guests throughout the evening. Eight team champions, who are cancer survivors, also shared their stories.
