SAY: The Stuttering Association for the Young presented the Third Annual Paul Rudd All-Star Bowling Benefit, hosted by actor Rudd, Jan. 12 at Lucky Strike Lanes in Manhattan.
In an earlier statement Rudd said, “To see these kids get in front of an audience and speak, which is difficult for anyone, is incredibly moving. What they do just speaks to the power of joining a group and gaining confidence.”
“Young people who stutter often face fear, ridicule and bullying, and may eventually silence themselves to hide their stutter. They may also feel isolated and alone,” noted Taro Alexander, SAY founder and president, in a statement. “This Paul Rudd event help kids and teens understand that stuttering shouldn’t hold them back from anything they dream of doing.”
The Stuttering Association for the Young (SAY.org) is a non-profit organization that offers innovative programs that address the physical, social and emotional impact of stuttering, including: Camp SAY; Confident Voices after-school & weekend programs; Speech Therapy, and support groups.
The Fred Ebb Award recognizes excellence in musical theatre songwriting, by a songwriter or songwriting team that has not yet achieved significant commercial success.
