Central New York may not be the biggest area in the country but it's filled with people who have the biggest hearts. Your generosity helped break records this year, raising an astounding amount of money for St Jude Children's Research Hospital.

$76,626

That's what you helped raise to fight childhood cancer, beating last year's total of $72,860. And you can still give online if you didn't get a chance during the two day radiothon.

Thank you to everyone who took part - Richard Bachman & Jaime Sifers of the Utica Comets, Logan Roberts & Ben Ramin of the Utica City FC soccer team, the Rome Police Department, Tompkins Drive and everyone else who answered phones.

Thanks to our sponsors, Trailer Marketing Services, Holy Smokes BBQ and Swifty's Restaurant and Pub, along with Howard Potter at A&P Master Images for donating the Partners in Hope Heart that was overflowing with love.

Thank you to Ed and Scott at Drain Masters who matched all donations up to $1000 on day one. They added another $1000 check on day two AND offered $500 more if we reached our goal of $75,000.

Most importantly thank YOU for joining the movement, becoming a Partner in Hope. We couldn't do it without your help.
