“This virus does not get the last word,” said Covenant House President and CEO Kevin Ryan. “This amazing group of stars uniting in love to help us care for kids is proof positive of that. These stars have stepped up because they recognize that our young people don’t have the option to shelter at home without a home."
The event is produced by Broadway director, choreographer and Covenant House Board member Jeff Calhoun. Event proceeds will benefit Covenant House’s work across 31 cities in six countries. To learn more about Covenant House, head here.
