Melissa Etheridge will headline the Shatterproof Stronger Than Addiction Challenge, an event hosted by the non-profit organization committed to reversing the addiction crisis in the US.
Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, Shatterproof found a virtual alternative to its annual 5K run/walk this year. The organization encourages registered participants to walk, bike, paint, sing, hike or perform any kind of physical or creative activity next Saturday, Sept. 26 while raising money to celebrate, honor and support people recovering from addiction as well as remember loved ones who've been affected by or died from it.
"I hope that my music and our collective voices and actions can end the stigma of addiction and help society realize that we need to work together to overcome this horrible disease," Etheridge said in a press statement.
