Entercom Country Radiothons Raise Over $2 Million For St. Jude

Good Work

ENTERCOM raised more than $2 million for ST. JUDE CHILDREN’S RESEARCH HOSPITAL this holiday season. Five Country stations -- WUSN (US99)/CHICAGO, WYCD/DETROIT, KSON/SAN DIEGO, KMLE (COUNTRY@107.9)/PHOENIX and WDSY (Y108)/PITTSBURGH -- hosted radiothons in their respective communities as part of the hospital’s long running “Country Cares for St. Jude Kids” program.

“I am incredibly proud of our stations and listeners for this remarkable effort to help save the lives of children with cancer,” ENTERCOM Pres./Programming PAT PAXTON said. “It does take a village, and it is an honor for ENTERCOM to support ST. JUDE CHILDREN’S RESEARCH HOSPITAL on this important cause.”

“We could not be more thankful for our partner ENTERCOM and its listeners, who epitomize the giving spirit and show unwavering support for the lifesaving mission of ST. JUDE,” said RICHARD SHADYAC JR., Pres./CEO of ST. JUDE's fundraising arm, ALSAC. “It’s through these deep community connections at stations across the country that thousands of people from all walks of life come together to help ST. JUDE continue its important work of finding cures for and treating children with cancer and other life-threatening diseases.”
