Hilarity for Charity

Did you hear Seth Rogen is in competition to win the Alzheimer’s Association $25,000?! Not only is it true, but he’s counting on your donations to help him win. The contest ends on Jan. 11th so be sure to make a donation and help him win bragging rights & $25,000 to help end Alzheimer’s!  Visit the Hilarity For charity website.

SETH'S MESSAGE:

Hilarity for Charity started as a message to my generation that it’s time to step up and realize that Alzheimer’s is not just an ‘old person’ disease, but something that will greatly affect all of us. Having a family member with Alzheimer’s disease has made me aware of the damage it does not only to the person who has been diagnosed, but to the caregivers, friends and family who surround the person.

This is why I’m asking for your help with a donation, this is why I’m doing my part to raise awareness by hosting Hilarity for Charity on Jan. 13 in LA.

You don’t want to miss this event. It’s going to be really fun. I’m performing. Aziz Ansari, Bruno Mars, Charlyne Yi, GZA, Judd Apatow & Ty Burell from Modern Family will all be doing something too. It’s all to raise cash for Alzheimer’s research and treatment. *performers are suject to change

The benefactor of the evening, the Alzheimer’s Association, is the world’s leading voluntary health organization in Alzheimer’s care, support and research. An estimated 5.4 million Americans currently have Alzheimer’s. By 2050 it is estimated that 16 million Americans will be living with the disease.
