The perfect gift! A brick on the WHAS Crusade Walk of Fame

To commemorate the 50th annual WHAS Crusade for Children, the sidewalk that surrounds the WHAS11 building at 6th and Chestnut Streets in downtown Louisville is now a place of tribute.

The WHAS Crusade for Children Walk of Fame is constructed of paving bricks available to engrave with your special message.

Your donation of $100 for a 5” X 8” or $500 for a 12” X 12” brick will pave the way for the WHAS Crusade for Children Endowment.

Each 5” X 8” brick can be engraved with three lines of text to honor:

  • You
  • Your family
  • Birthdays
  • Anniversaries
  • Special occasions
  • Memory of a loved one
  • Each 12” X 12” brick can include up to five lines of text or an engraved company or organization logo. Call (502) 582-7706 for details.
