Stamford, Conn. – May 5, 2014 – AmeriCares will host an advance screening of Disney’s “Million Dollar Arm,” on Tuesday, May 13, to benefit the humanitarian aid organization’s programs in India. An Evening for AmeriCares India will be held at 6 p.m. at the AMC Theater, West 84th and Broadway in New York City. The movie, starring Jon Hamm, Lake Bell, Madhur Mittal, Aasif Mandvi and Suraj Sharma, is based on the real life story of a sports agent searching India’s cricket teams for baseball’s next pitching sensation.

Attendees will have the opportunity to learn about the global health and disaster relief organization’s aid deliveries and health initiatives in India, as well as enjoy a pre-screening reception. AmeriCares India responds to emergency medical needs, supports long-term humanitarian assistance programs in India and throughout the region, and operates five mobile medical clinics that provide free primary care and medicines to residents of Mumbai’s slums. Over the years, AmeriCares has delivered more than $50 million worth of medicines, medical supplies and aid to India.
