Red Nose Day is a campaign that originated in 1988 in Britain is dedicated to raising money for children and young people living in poverty by simply having fun and making people laugh. On Red Nose Day people across the country come together to have fun and raise funds and awareness. Since launching in the United States in 2015 (and we’re proud to have been involved since that first year, with the generous support of millions of Americans, hundreds of celebrities, and key partners including NBC and Walgreen’s, Red Nose Day has raised over $270 million and actively impacting the lives of over 25 million children.
