About the Author

My name is Yael Litwak and I am a sophomore at UCF majoring in Event Management. I am now in my 3rd semester with the LEAD Scholars Academy which encouraged me to participate in this project. I have a passion for kids and helping others which is why I have spent my time focusing on UCF's biggest student run philanthropy- Knight-Thon. This is my second year involved and I absolutely love participating and being on an Impact team to further my involvement and support.

Abstract, Summary, or Creative Statement

Knight-Thon is something I have been passionate about since the beginning of my experience at UCF. I discovered Knight-Thon through my sister, who had been involved during her college years, and soon followed her footsteps to become involved. I discovered this passion through my sorority's team and am now serving on an Impact Team to further my time, support and involvement in Knight-Thon. I have learned so much about the operations, behind the scenes with the Orlando Health Arnold Palmer Hospital for Children, and working and meeting the miracle families. I have loved my time getting to further my love for Knight-Thon and hope my passion shines through my project.
