It's a long-standing tradition--it's been around as long as I can remember--and it's a great one! It's the 35th Annual Easter Seals Telethon! It will air live from the Easter Seals Rehabilitation Center on WEHT Local this Sunday, April 15th from 12-6PM. 

I'm a big fan of the Easter Seals Rehab Center which has been providing physical, occupational, and speech to individuals in the tri-state for decades. About 95% of the center's clients require monetary help from donations to continue receiving therapy.

And that's why this telethon is so vitally important. The Easter Seals Telethon broke the record last year with a $980,000 haul. This year's goal is $985,000.

You are cordially invited to call in your pledge this Sunday. You can use one of two numbers: 812-491-9191 in Evansville, or toll-free 1-877-929-2929. Who knows, I may be the one taking your donation. I'll be working a phone between 2 and 3PM Sunday afternoon. Hope to hear from you Sunday!
