MDA Show of Strength Telethon

The Muscular Dystrophy Association’s nationally broadcast telethon, one of America’s longest-standing and beloved fundraising and entertainment events, will return this Labor Day weekend with a new broadcast home: the ABC Television Network.

The network has signed on to air the two-hour "MDA Show of Strength Telethon" on ABC stations across the country on Sunday, Sept. 1, 9/8c. As in the past, the entertainment event will raise funds and awareness to support MDA’s mission to help children and adults affected by progressive and often fatal muscle diseases. (Source: ABC)
