Have you been saving your pennies for the kids of St. Jude Children's Research Hospital?

We hope so, because this week marks the beginning of the Cat Country Quest for One Million Pennies!

We plan to broadcast live from different locations over the next six Fridays, in order to collect One Million Pennies!

This Friday from 8am - 6pm we'll be at the Shoprite in Somers Point.

If you're in the area, please make plans to drop off your pennies and help out the kids.

Our theme this year is "Pools of Change", and at each location we'll be looking to fill a Kiddie Swimming Pool to the top with pennies!

In February or March, we hold our St. Jude Radiothon, where we ask you for "the big money"  to help out the kids of St. Jude. During the Quest, we ask for pennies - the smallest amount possible - because we feel it's a way for EVERYBODY to give - even if it's just a little.

We are asking for pennies, but you can certainly give any kind of money. Even checks are welcome! (Write out checks to: St. Jude Children's Research Hospital.)

All money collected goes to St. Jude Children's Research Hospital and is used for treatment or life-saving research. For more information on St. Jude, go here.
