THANK YOU for your incredible support during this year’s One Million Dollar Radiothon For St. Jude Kids Radiothon presented by Oklahoma Central Credit Union.
Your generosity helped us raise more than $180,000 for the St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital. Dozens of 1o3.3 The Eagle listeners called in to become a Partner in Hope during the two-day radiothon as 103.3 on-air personalities shared inspiring stories of hope, perseverance, and innovation told by children and families who have benefited from the work of the St. Jude.
Our thanks to presenting sponsor Oklahoma Central Credit Union, tote board sponsor Oklahoma Veterinary Specialists, K95.5, and FOX23.
About St. Jude
St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital is leading the way the world understands, treats and defeats childhood cancer and other deadly diseases. Everything they do is centered on finding cures and saving children. And families never receive a bill from St. Jude. They pay for treatment, travel, housing and food – because all a family should worry about is helping their child live.
By sharing their knowledge freely and exchanging ideas openly, they’re inspiring more collaboration between doctors and researchers worldwide, and, as a result, more lifesaving treatments for children everywhere. Treatments invented at St. Jude have helped push the overall childhood cancer survival rates from 20 percent to 80 percent since it opened 50 years ago. And they are working to drive the overall survival rate for childhood cancer from 90 percent in the next decade. They won’t stop until no child dies from cancer. Because most of their funding comes from individual supporters, no family pays St. Jude for anything. This unique structure gives them the freedom to focus on what matters most – finding cures and saving children. At St. Jude, we won’t give up. We do everything possible to end childhood cancer and other deadly diseases.
