This event gathered not only members of Hispanic media but also renowned Latin music artists who together aimed to raise funds and awareness for the vital work performed at St. Jude.
Creating Angels of Hope
Uforia, iHeart, and WAPA Media Group radio stations actively participated in the event, collaborating with celebrities and social media influencers. They called upon listeners to become Ángeles de Esperanza (Angels of Hope) by making a monthly donation of just $19. Donors were rewarded with the exclusive t-shirt that proclaimed, 'This Shirt Saves Lives.' Celebrities and artists, including Fey, Luis Fonsi, and Jacqie Rivera, donned the shirt while promoting the cause across their social media platforms.
Broadcasting the Cause
The event reached listeners in 15 different markets, touching communities in Chicago, Houston, Los Angeles, Miami, and beyond. These broadcasts played a crucial role in highlighting the need for children's health research and treatment, emphasizing the collective efforts to support St. Jude.
Impact and Gratitude
According to Richard C. Shadyac Jr., the President and CEO of ALSAC, the fundraising organization for St. Jude, the contributions made by supporters are invaluable. They empower St. Jude to continue its critical work in advancing research and treatment options for childhood cancers and other serious diseases affecting children. Shadyac expressed deep gratitude to all media partners and listeners who were moved to contribute. Their generosity ensures that families never receive bills for treatment, housing, or travel associated with their child’s care.
