Speaking of the partnership, Matt Henderson, co-founder of Tourpedo said: “We are proud to be partnering with Mountain Jam for the second year in a row to live stream this awesome festival. It’s a good feeling to know that you can provide fans with over 30 hours of live music while also raising money to support Teen Cancer America through our versatile streaming platform. The artists and Tourpedo are excited to be a part of such a great festival that supports a great cause.”
Proceeds from the live stream will benefit Teen Cancer America, a charity founded by The Who’s Roger Daltrey and Pete Townshend. The charity is designed to help hospitals and healthcare professionals bridge the gap between pediatric and adult oncology care. Teen Cancer America aims to educate and support hospitals and outpatient facilities in the development of specialized units for this age group. The units are a place just for teens and young adults where the cancer experience is understood and the importance of living life through the cancer journey is nourished.
Roger Daltrey recently stopped by New York’s Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center to help launch a new Teen and Young Adult lounge that is being built. The new facility was made possible due to a donation from his band The Who.
