Question

Do you donate to the Jerry Lewis telethon?

Answer 1

I do - because I believe in it. And I believe with our help a cure can be found. A cure cannot be found overnight, but they are so close to finding a cure to one of the many different kinds of muscular dystrophy. Yes, a lot of money had been donated to the MDA, but do you have any idea how expensive medical research is? And it's complicated research. We're talking about human lives, life and death. So yes, they've been researching for a long time, but it's going to take more time and a lot of money has been donated, but more is needed. Because there is a lot at stake and they need to get this right the first time. Plus, the money is not all going towards research. It's also going towards medical treatment and equipment, hospital bills, summer camps...support groups, for these kids.

Answer 2

no because i know some of it probably makes its way into his pocket.

Answer 3

Jerry Lewis's telethon may be a good cause, but I let others contribute to it..

I have a group of local charities that I donate to....

Answer 4

I used to but figured if they haven't found a cure yet after all the millions (maybe billions) donated so far then money clearly isn't the answer so I stopped a few years ago.
