CST Bike Challenge will make donation to Telethon association in France

But what is Telethon?


The Telethon, a French fund-raising event, belongs to everyone!
It takes place the first week-end of December every year with the help of hundreds of thousands of volunteers, millions of participants and lots of artists. The Telethon is also a 30 hour TV show on a public chanel.


 The French Telethon was imported from the US in 1986.
It generates around 100 Million Euros in donations for the AFM Association.

The Muscular Dystrophy Association (AFM) that organise the event is composed of patients and their families who are affected by a genetic, rare, progressive and severely disabling illness: neuromuscular diseases. In order to fight those diseases, AFM chose to initiate innovative actions and a strategy of general interest that benefits all rare diseases and all persons with disabilities
