Funds raised will help MPTF continue to provide essential support and services to working and retired entertainment industry members.
The past six years have shined a light on how MPTF is here to help between the pandemic, work stoppages, wildfire relief, production issues, and personal crises.
Crew members and their families who survive in a job-by-job economy can struggle with basic needs like rent, mortgage and house payments, medical bills, and groceries even in the best of times, which is where MPTF's emergency financial services and dedicated social services team are vital to provide a lifeline to those who need it.
'For more than 105 years, MPTF has quietly stood by the artists, crews, and craftspeople who power this industry — in moments of crisis and need. We're honored to serve as Co-Chairs of this incredible event,' said Night Before Co-Chairs Pamela Abdy and Michael De Luca.
