Nashville Radio: Bobby Bones St. Jude Radiothon Raises $1.3M

This week's one-day St. Jude Radiothon during The Bobby Bones Morning Show on WSIX 97.9 FM The Big 98 raised $1.3M for St. Jude Children Research Hospital.

The Bones Morning Show morning show hosted country artists who popped by the studio to perform classic covers of hits that fans know and love. Everyone from Kelsea Ballerini to Lauren Alaina to Mo Pitney stopped in to give their best renditions of some inspiring tunes in order to raise money for the kids in need.

Bobby Bones is not new to the St. Jude family as he has been a dedicated supporter of the organization throughout his career. Planning trips to go visit the kids in Memphis to donating so much time to their cause, Bones was happily surprised with the success of the Radiothon than anything he’s done to help out before.


“I’m honestly blown away by the generosity of our listeners this morning,” said Bones. “The amount raised is overwhelming and donations are still coming in. With the holidays coming up, money can be tight and so it means even more that our fans have chosen to contribute to such an amazing cause. I also have to thank all of our artist friends that took part in such an important broadcast, as well as our awesome group of radio station affiliates, who always go above and beyond to support us in our charitable endeavors.”
