Since 2005, the City of Nice has been heavily involved alongside the local associative network to make the Telethon a major solidarity event. Thus, every first weekend of December, a village of associative and institutional stands is open to the general public and activities are offered there.
The French Muscular Dystrophy Association (AFM) – Telethon is an association of parents and patients fighting relentlessly against rare and severely disabling genetic diseases. A charity event has been organized since 1987 to fund research projects on neuromuscular genetic diseases and new social actions to better support patients and their families.
The Telethon in Nice
A Telethon village will be set up this Saturday, December 3rd, from 10 AM to 6 PM on the Promenade du Paillon and the Esplanade de la Bourgada.
You can come and meet volunteers who will be active at the sites and also attend sports demonstrations, participate in challenges, discover the activities of the firefighters, and many other activities.
