43rd Annual St. Jude Telethon

The St. Jude’s Children’s Research Hospital held its 43rd Annual Telethon a little differently this year. On Saturday, July 18th, instead of hosting an in-person live telethon, most components of the broadcast were pre-recorded & pre-produced to comply with social distancing standards and CDC requirements. Usually, SC2 participates as a VIP on the phone bank stage, but due to the spread of COVID-19, the phone bank was managed by St. Jude staff members. Despite these challenges, this year the Central & Southern Illinois Chapter raised a whopping $9,018,619!

SC2 directly contributed $18,000!

Thank you to all who donate weekly to make this possible!
