Distance 4 Dreams (D4D) gathered the most prominent vocal performance groups on campus for a concert in the Gallagher Student Center (GSC) Theatre on Nov. 17.
The event was held to raise money to grant children with lifethreatening illnesses their wishes of going to Disneyworld and drew more than a hundred audience members to the atrium of GSC.
During the annual trip, the participants will have a choice to run either a half marathon, full marathon or both.
The performance in GSC was held by Xavier University’s aca- Bellas, Harmon-X and Singers. The acaBellas sang “When You Wish Upon A Star,” “Sweet Dreams,” “Kaleidoscope Heart,” “Slow Me Down” and “Teenage
Dream.” Harmon-X sang “Africa,” “Kiss Dee Girl,” “Sorry” and “Just a Dream.” The Singers sang “Eye in the Sky,” and “Boogie Fever.” The final song was “I’ll Make a Man Out of You,” and was performed by The Distance 4 Dreams Officers. D4D was founded at Dayton University and Xavier is the home of the second group. “D4D is a great group that allows me to exercise and do service for others at the same time. I’m so excited to head to Disney in January, it is my dream job to work in the marketing department at Disney World,” freshman Allie Allen said. The club hopes to send two or three families to Orlando this year.
