For 46 years, the St. Jude Telethon has given our community a way to join the fight against childhood cancer and other life-threatening diseases and to further the lifesaving mission of St. Jude: Finding cures. Saving children.®

The 2023 St. Jude Telethon will be a live broadcast from the Peoria Civic Center on WEEK 25. The Telethon is an opportunity for local leaders and St. Jude supporters to serve as Telethon VIPs, who are committed to raising funds for the kids of St. Jude, and are recognized during the St. Jude Telethon.
