John Williams hosts the annual Salvation Army Radiothon. Our Virtual Red Kettle was stuffed thanks to our amazing WGN listeners and all of our generous sponsors. Special thanks to the one and only David Hochberg, The Salvation Army’s Major Caleb Senn, good ol’ #97 Chris Zorich, the always delightful Corey McPherrin, formerly from your TV, Tom Dominguez from ComEd, Eric Klix from Enterprise Mobility, Beth Witczak of CIBC, Peter Kim and JJ Pook (and the Salvation Army brass ensemble), Matthew Coatar, Captain AJ Zimmerman, Steve Hill and Brian Duewel of the Salvation Army, Bob Coyne and Kristina Quinn of WGN Radio (and former WGN newsman Steve Bertrand!), the Duchossois Foundation, Blue Cross Blue Shield of Illinois, Bully & Andrews, Mary Frances Trucco from Jewel-Osco, Chante Bogard from the Sutton Auto Team, and all of the generous WGN listeners!

Your donations to The Salvation Army will help keep families in their homes, put food on their tables, and brighten the holidays for children. And all gifts stay local to the Chicagoland area. Last year, The Salvation Army provided nearly 1 million meals, 400,000 cases of emergency assistance, and over 160,000 bags of groceries to neighbors in need. Click here to donate to John’s kettle! Every donation counts!
