HILARITY FROM PAGE 8
Alzheimer's disease is the sixth leading cause of death in America and the only cause of death in the top 10 without a method for preventing, curing or slowing its progression, according to the Alzheimer's Association.
Hilarity for Charity is meant to promote awareness to campuses and help college students cope with family members who have the disease.
"Even though we are just one school, we can make a big difference," Kesler said.
Kesler is a committee member for Hilarity for Charity, and her job is to tell students about the organization and sell tickets for the show. The show is at 7 p.m. on Nov. 19 at Liberty Hall.
Kesler said she has seen the impact of HFC through Crowdrise, a fundraising website that keeps track of
how much other universities have raised.
It will consist of performances by the Sharp Sisters, Captiva, stand-up comedians, and it will have a live auction.
Despite his pending graduation, Ashley kept the group going and passed the torch to Sarah Graves, a senior from Colorado, and Keaton Prather, a senior from Sterling.
"Rogen started the organization nationally to get people in the millennial generation aware of Alzheimer's disease," Graves said. "[Our goal is to] bring awareness to campus and hopefully cure Alzheimer's."
Hilarity for Charity is one of the only organizations on campus related to Alzheimer's. Graves said she chose to get involved because she realized that Alzheimer's also affects people in college who have family members who suffer from the disease.
"[i'm] motivated by the lack of people our age trying to make a difference;" Graves said.
As director of sponsorship, Crysta Moon, a sophomore from Overland Park, said she joined because she "saw the opportunity to get involved with this great new organization on campus."
"[I also like that] they don't keep any money for themselves," Moon said. "They give it all to the organization."
In its first year, KU Hilarity for Charity raised more than $5,000, the third largest amount out of all the universities that participated, Graves said. Moon said the organization continues to grow, which provides more opportunities for students to get involved.

in its first year to his friends on campus who supported his vision for the organization.
"My executive board was made up of close friends and fraternity brothers who were all already proven, passionate leaders on campus," Ashley said.
But the goal of Hilarity for Charity at the University has not only been to raise funds. It's also a platform for community support.
"Alzheimer's gets so little attention compared to other causes so I am hoping that KU HFC creates a voice for those affected by Alzheimer's and inspires them to join in the fight too," Ashley said.
He added: "I am passionate about HFC because I have seen the devastating effects of Alzheimer's Disease firsthand and hope that someday soon no one has to see their grandfather forget their name or their mother come home from the nursing home tired, sad and exhausted after care giving all day."
EVAN AGOSTINI/INVISION/AP In this Sept. 10, 2015 file photo, director Michael Moore attends the "Where to Invade Next" premiere at the Toronto International Film Festival in Toronto. Moore is protesting the 1RI rating given to his upcoming documentary "Where to Invade Next" by the Motion Picture Association of America. Moore said in a statement Monday, Nov. 2, that the MPAA gave his film an R rating for "language, some violent images, drug use and brief graphic nudity." In the film, Moore travels abroad to co-opt civic ideas he believe would help the United States.

his way.
Moore also stirred up some harsh reactions in 2014 when he gave his opinion on snipers. Although he didn't mention anything about the film "American Sniper," based on the true story of United States Navy SEAL Chris Kyle, it is likely that it inspired his tweet.

in WW2. We were taught snipers were cowards. Will shoot u in the back. Snipers aren't heroes. And invaders r worse
@MMElint
It is unclear what is next in Moore's battle with the MPAA, and it is likely that this isn't the last of it. The controversial filmmaker will continue to be controversial. Where to invade next? For Moore, it's the MPAA.
