(St. Leon, Ind.) - East Central High School Juniors Leigha Cummings and Alex Disbro are organizing a dance marathon benefiting Riley Children’s Hospital of Indianapolis.

The two started the Riley Community at East Central with the help of their student council and are now organizing the Riley Night Dance Marathon taking place on Friday May 10.

“We decided to go with Riley because it is in Indiana, and lot of colleges focus on them for their dance marathons. We were inspired by that and wanted to do that in our school,” said Alex Disbro.
