Jokes4Miles

Miles and his father Len shared a love of comedy and found strength in the ability to laugh during treatment. A goal to collect 5000 jokes and well-wishes was embraced by strangers, the media and celebrities alike. The campaign showed that everyone can make a difference in the lives of people around the world using a simple joke or well-wish, without having to make a monetary donation. The filmmakers, artists and volunteers, known as Miles? Monkeys, create customized media for children and charitable organizations. Videos highlight the work of members in the community dedicated to making a difference. We help share important stories. Programs also include free use of the Jokes4Miles studio on the North side of Chicago for children, their families and our supporters. Mission:?Jokes4Miles delivers support to children and families facing cancer by creating entertaining and informational content in addition to other services to ease the journey that accompanies treatment. We create campaigns that allow anyone to show support without the need to donate money.
