With the COVID-19 pandemic, the Variety Show of Hearts will look a little different this year.
But the need for help is greater than ever.
To meet the increased need for help, Variety will be holding a three-day event, kicking off on today on Global BC where viewers will meet some of the amazing kids they’ve helped in 2021.
Stories will run on Global News Morning, Global News at Noon and Global News Hour at 6.
Viewers will then get to meet more of B.C.’s kids when the 55th Annual Variety Show of Hearts Telethon airs on Global BC on Saturday, Feb. 20 from 1 p.m. to 5:30 p.m.
