The Jerry Lewis MDA Labor Day Telethon was an enchanting yearly variety show that ran for half a century. Hosted for many years by Jerry Lewis, the telethon featured top stars from the world of music, comedy and Broadway and was like no other show on earth.

The telethon was created to help support the Muscular Dystrophy Association, which is transforming the lives of people living with muscular dystrophy, neuromuscular diseases and ALS. MDA dedicates itself to funding research for better treatments, providing better care and finding cures. To learn more about MDA and to donate, please visit www.MDA.org
