2024 St. Jude Radiothon Total Announced

The Tri-State showed up, once again this year to support St. Jude Children's Research Hospital.

Over the course of 26 hours (13 on Thursday and 13 on Friday), we shared with you a number of stories from the current and former patients of St. Jude, their families, as well as a few of the employees who are working tirelessly around the clock to develop and administer treatments to children of all ages who are fighting cancer. Some of those stories had happy endings, while in others, despite St. Jude's best efforts, cancer proved to be too strong and the child didn't make it. It's definitely a 26-hour emotional rollercoaster, but it's important to share both sides to show that while St. Jude has made incredible strides in treatments, there is still work to be done.

I'll be honest, the St. Jude Radiothon is the most mentally exhausting, yet rewarding two days that I experience each year. Hearing some of these stories all day really takes a toll on you. Especially this year, as I am a new dad. I can't imagine what these families have gone through. That's why continuing the fight against childhood cancer along with St. Jude is so important to me. The hope is that one day, no child will ever lose their life as a result of cancer. I certainly want to do my part to make sure that becomes a reality for my children. Apparently, many of you here in the Tri-State feel the same way, which is why you became a Partner in Hope during our radiothon.
