We Ain’t Letting Cancer, Or A Bunch Of Yankees Beat Us!!

I was informed shortly after arriving at work this morning, Townsquare Media, Lafayette has been challenged. A Townsquare station in Albany, New York says they're going to recruit more partners in hope than Townsquare, Lafayette. I DON'T Think SO!! Louisiana people are the best! One of the biggest reasons that's true is the way we pull together to overcome adversity. More than 700 kids from Louisiana are being treated at St. Jude. We recntly lost one of our most famous, Markell Gregois from New Iberia. Markell was a diehard Saints fan. He told Terry Bradshaw he was wrong when Terry predicted the colts would beat the Saints in Superbowl XLIV. Markell introduced the Saints' 2013 first round draft pick, Kenny Vaccaro.

St. Jude provides whatever a family needs: hospital care, medications, transportation, food and housing. No family ever receives a bill. There's a quote on the gift shop wall from Danny Thomas, "I'd rather a million people give me a dollar, than one person give me a million. That way, a million people have gotten involved."

We can do this, Acadiana! become a partner in hope. challenge your friends & coworkers to do the same. We ain't going to let a bunch of Yankees beat us!! Call 800-372-4999, or log on to stjude.org.
