Support the Téléthon 2019 alongside the French associations in Shanghai!
The French associations in Shanghai are preparing a special Téléthon evening on Thursday, November 21st at la Residence de France.
ABOUT TÉLÉTHON
The AFM-Téléthon is born of a conviction and a will: cure long diseases considered incurables or rare genetic diseases, which affect 3 million people in France, half of whom are under 20 years old.
The Association is pursuing a strategy of general interest. The scientific, medical and social innovation that it promotes benefit to all rare diseases and people with disabilities and advances medicine as a whole.
TÉLÉTHON IN CHINA
Last year, the FIAFE (Fédération Internationale des Accueils Français et Francophones d’Expatriés) made a commitment to the AFM-Téléthon to support and encourage their actions thanks to its global network of many French associations based in China.
In 2018, the concrete result of the donations allowed:
- 34 million euros spent on helping patients
- 250 programs and young researchers finance
- € 59.3 million spent on research
The mobilization in Asia, and particularly in China, is very strong, and we owe it to volunteers who have been engaged for many years, for whom the leitmotif always remains "to do more to give more, to share and never to let go".
