“I’m very encouraged by the continued innovative fundraising by MDA with the reimagining of the telethon to continue the mission in the toughest times,” says Chris Rosa, PhD, Assistant Vice Chancellor for Student Inclusion Initiatives for The City University of New York and former MDA Board member. “It’s incredibly important to raise awareness on the world’s stage to fund research and care for people with neuromuscular diseases, like me. When the community comes together we are empowered and can shine a spotlight on the contributions we all make on a daily basis, and I’m proud to be part of a production that is collaborating directly with the people MDA serves,” he continued.
The MDA Kevin Hart Kids Telethon will be a reimagined event featuring entertainment, comedy, musical performances, and MDA’s Let’s Play For A Cure gaming elements. The special will give viewers the opportunity to support the Muscular Dystrophy Association and Help From the Hart Charity, as well as get an inside look at the essential work of the organization through impactful profiles on families, research, care, and advocacy.
