SULLIVAN COUNTY, NY (September 17, 2012) – Once again, Thunder 102 Radio in Liberty, NY stepped up to the plate in the battle against children’s cancer. 
The Second Annual “Country Cares for St. Jude Kids Radiothon” took place on Thursday and Friday, September 14 and 15 and raised over $25,000 for children’s cancer research at the Memphis hospital.
Presented by Middletown Medical and sponsored by Formaggio Cheese Specialties, Yellow Cab, Hilltop Homes and Bethel Woods Center For The Arts, this year’s Radiothon was hosted by Thunder 102 personalities Paul Ciliberto, Mike Sakell, Michelle Semerano and Jason Dole.
Wrangling the various celebrities and accounting for all the “Boot Cards” (donation cards that were available at area businesses) was Al Frangipane,
a familiar face at many local charity events (pictured at right with Thunder 102 Marketing & Promotions Director Regina Hensley).
A steady parade of local celebrities, business owners and politicians came and went, bringing donations, prizes for the Partners in Hope (people who sign up to make monthly donations) and good wishes. Included in the photo above are Jason Dole (left), Jennifer Stiglich Desrochers of Momma D and Da Boyz (standing center) and Joanne Geraine from Bake You Happy (right).
St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital, located in Memphis, TN was opened by Danny Thomas in 1962 as a treatment and research facility devoted solely to children’s cancer and other catastrophic diseases. Research findings from St. Jude are shared freely with doctors and scientists all over the world and help not only children, but adults as well. At St. Jude, families never pay for treatment not covered by insurance.
The St. Jude Radiothons have raised more than $400 million in the past 30 years. To learn more about St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital, go to www.stjude.org.
