When the bad guys and the good guys and the morally questionable folks in the middle come together, Star Wars can do very special things and this – the Holiday of Hope telethon in aid of the Starlight Children’s Foundation – is a prime example. This past weekend 7th and 8th December saw costumers, fans, actors and crew unite in aid of Starlight for two days of absolutely fascinating panels and talks (and some cool surprises). Donate at this link here and watch some (if not all) of this superb telethon.

We would be honored if you would join us! The 501st Legion is proud to present The Holiday of Hope Telethon 2024! We will be streaming LIVE Saturday December 7th, and Sunday December 8th starting at 7:45 a.m. EST on Facebook and our YouTube Channel (www.youtube.com/@The501stLegion).

We have two full days of unique and exclusive content, panels, discussions and an impressive list of interviews with special guests from the Star Wars franchise.

The Holiday of Hope Telethon is supporting the Starlight Children’s Foundation
