As long as there are children living in poverty and facing inequity, every day is Red Nose Day

Child poverty has long been a crisis, but right now it is nothing short of an emergency. A gift of any size can protect children facing poverty from the ripple effects of COVID-19.

We need your support to help give children living in the most vulnerable communities across the U.S. and around the world a chance at a better life and a brighter future.

We could all use a little laughter right now – and many of us are also looking for ways to support those impacted by the COVID-19 crisis. While the impacts of the COVID-19 crisis have affected everyone, children living in poverty are especially vulnerable.

That’s why we’re inviting you to join the virtual Red Nose Day Joke-Ha-Thon. You and your family can share your best jokes to raise money to support children who are most in need – and raise some spirits, too.

Hasbro will match funds raised for Joke-Ha-Thon up to $50,000!
