“For years, I've understood and watched with admiration the energy deployed by the teams, volunteers and public around the Telethon. Research is advancing and children are living thanks to the extraordinary work of everyone involved. But there's still work to be done for those who don't yet have a cure, and for all the research that's already underway and still needs to come to fruition! That's why I'm delighted to be the patron of this 2024 edition. Without you, researchers wouldn't be able to move forward as quickly, or worse, at all! The Telethon still needs you, your generosity. Let's make this Telethon 2024 a great celebration! See you soon everywhere in France and on France Télévisions!” declared Mika, delighted to be the patron of Telethon 2024.
On November 29 and 30, all over France and on France Televisions, join Mika and discover what makes the Telethon so special: a unique human adventure that mobilizes millions of participants every year to advance research and beat the disease.
Building treatments, fighting disease
Before the 1st Telethon, rare diseases were surrounded by walls of indifference, ignorance and oblivion. The pioneering parents of the AFM-Téléthon decided to tear down these walls. Determined and buoyed by the tremendous collective impetus of the Telethon, they spurred innovative research and set up laboratories. Today, thanks to everyone's support and excellent research, the Telethon is building a new medicine that has changed the lives of thousands of patients.
Marley and Mylane, Tim, Sacha, Paul, Félicie : 5 ambassador families will embody, this year, these first great victories against diseases that were once incurable, but also the urgency of those waiting for a cure!
Together, we are the builders of innovative medicine that changes the lives of patients. On November 29 and 30, join the Telethon 2024 ambassadors and the thousands of families they represent in building tomorrow's victories !
