PB PERS St Jude

Talked with Melissa Miranda, Development Representative Atlantic Coast Region-Miami ALSAC, St. Jude Children's Research Hospital and Lindsay Wolf, Promotions Director, IheartMedia about St. Jude and our upcoming 2nd annual radio telethon on WAVE Country to raise funds for St. Jude. St. Jude was founded by Danny Thomas in Memphis,TN to provide cutting edge cancer treatment to children regardless of their ability to pay. They've increased the survival rate from 20% in 1962 to 80% today. St. Jude works with local hospitals as well, the kids go to St. Jude for their initial treatment and then get their treatments at home with followup visits at St. Jude. Listeners can tune in to WAVE Country on Dec 6 and 7th to help donate. If they want to volunteer to work with St. Jude go to www.stjude.org
