st. jude radiothon

St. Jude is working every day to find cures and save lives. For their older patients, treatment can be especially difficult, but St. Jude helps heal with art.

In January, I had the honor of visiting St. Jude Children's Research Hospital in Memphis. It was an experience that I will remember for the rest of my life.

St. Jude Children's Research Hospital is working every day to find cures and save kids, but they can't do it without the generosity of their Partners in Hope. Find out how you can become a Partner in Hope now.

Despite the fact his journey ended far too soon after a brain tumor relapse, Newburgh's Sam Featherstone and his family continue to be an inspiration and a driving force in the St. Jude fundraising effort even a year after his death. Sam's parents, Tammy and Andy Featherstone stopped by during the Radiothon to talk about Sam's journey and the tremendously positive role St. Jude played in it. Read

As our third annual Radiothon for St. Jude Children's Research Hospital gets ready to enter its second day, I thought I'd pull the curtain back a bit and show you how your desire to join the fight against childhood cancer by becoming a Partner in Hope becomes reality.

You may think you don't have an extra $20 in your monthly budget to become a Partner in Hope with St. Jude Children's Research Hospital in Memphis, Tennessee, however I'm here to tell you that if you look at where your money goes, finding that extra $20 to help fight childhood cancer is easier than you think.

Our third annual St. Jude Radiothon begins today as we look for you to join us in helping St. Jude Children's Research Hospital in Memphis, Tennessee continue their ground-breaking research and treatment of childhood cancer and other catastrophic diseases by becoming a Partner in Hope. But what does that mean?

For most people, the opportunity to jump inside Kenny Kent Chevrolet's Cash Grab Booth is a chance to pocket extra money they can use toward the purchase of a new vehicle from the dealership, or a nice dinner out depending on the amount they grab. For me, it was the chance to make a donation toward the fight against childhood cancer.

Thanks to your commitment to becoming a Partner in Hope, we had our most successful radiothon to date!

For argument sake, let's say you've made the commitment to become a Partner in Hope with St. Jude. If you haven't, there's still time to do so online. But once you make that commitment, where does your $20 per month go?

The numbers are simply astounding.

Take a look at what's going behind the microphones of our annual fundraising event.
