Miley Cyrus and Jonas Brothers will do their bit to aid cancer research when they perform at Concert for Hope at Universal City on September 14.
Miley Cyrus and Disney have been long time supporters of cancer research, donating $1 from every ticket sold on the Best of Both Worlds tour, which raised more than $1 million for the City of Hope project.“We are honoured and grateful for the generosity of Disney, Creative Artists Agency and the dedication of Miley Cyrus and the Jonas Brothers in supporting the lifesaving work of City of Hope,” said Michael A. Friedman, M.D., president and chief executive officer, City of Hope in a statement. “This Concert for Hope demonstrates their commitment to improving the lives of patients with cancer and to helping create a future in which cancer is not only treatable, but curable and preventable.”
The City of Hope was founded in 1913. It has pioneered the field of bone marrow transplantation and genetics.
Since 1973, Universal Music, Warner and Disney has helped raise more than $69 million to support the programs.
