Since the "Country Cares" program began in 1989, radio stations across America have raised more than $150 million in pledges for St. Jude Children's Research Hospital. "Country Cares" is present in 170 radio markets, with events in eight of the top 10 markets and more than 65 of the top 100. St. Jude Children's Research Hospital in Memphis, Tenn., was founded by the late entertainer Danny Thomas. The hospital is an internationally recognized, biomedical research center dedicated to finding cures for catastrophic childhood diseases. The hospital's work is supported through funds raised by the American Lebanese Syrian Associated Charities (ALSAC). All St. Jude patients are treated regardless of their ability to pay. ALSAC covers all costs for families who have no insurance. For more information, please visit http://www.stjude.org.
