911 Gives Hope For the Holidays

Today kicks off our annual 911 Gives Hope for the Holidays Toy Drive and just like years past, Santa will be on hand to visit with the children. This year, they can receive a free Frosty from Wendy's when they visit him.

For the ninth straight year, we're asking you to help us fill a 53-foot trailer full of toys for kids spending the holiday's in Tri-State hospitals.

Once again, United Fidelity Bank is giving you the chance to help fill a 53-foot trailer full of toys for just a dollar!

Coming up on Saturday July 9th, hop on your bike for a great cause!

Our 7th annual 911 Gives Hope for the Holidays Toy Drive and radiothon is underway out at the east side Wal-Mart. Check out these short videos that I shot while broadcasting live today.

We're here at the Eastside Walmart in Evansville for the 911 Gives Hope for the Holidays Toy Drive! Come out and donate toys or money to help area children have a nice Christmas and ease the discomfort of being in the hospital through the year.

We wanted to extend a thank you to Pet Smart, for donating brand new toys to 911 Gives Hope for the Holidays! We just picked up pallets and pallets of adorable, lovable, stuffed furry friends that will be given to pediatric patients at five local facilities this year!

Every year, Santa visits 911 Gives Hope for the Holidays. Okay, we aren't talking the fakey Santa that stuffs his belly with a pillow. No, we are talking the real, Old Saint Nicholas; Father Christmas; Papai Noel.

Every holiday season, for three days, police officers, firefighters, and medics camp out at the Evansville Wal-Mart East parking lot to collect toys.  Indispensable support is provided by Townsquare Media,  Henderson Chevrolet, and Wal-mart.

This morning I had Anita Hagen from Deaconess Hospital join me in the studio to talk about the upcoming 911 Gives Hope For The Holidays toy drive.
