Crusade final toteboard: $5,121,881<\/h2>\n

Nearly 200 fire departments, hundreds of organizations and thousands of people made it happen. <\/p>\n

After 30+ hours of the radio\/Internet\/television celebration, about 100 volunteers and supporters of the WHAS Crusade for Children gave this, the 58th annual, a rousing send off with an emotional singing of God Bless America. <\/p>\n

When it was all said and sung, the people of Kentuckiana donated $5,121,881 to the 58th annual Crusade to help children with special needs. <\/p>\n

Broadcast outlets put aside any competitive differences for the betterment of children. The weekend included endless live coverage on flagship broadcast outlets WHAS-TV and 84WHAS Radio; as well as six hours on WBKI-TV, Louisville; four hours on WBKO-TV, Bowling Green; two hours on WQWQ-TV, Paducah; and 2 hours on each of the seven Commonwealth Broadcasting radio stations.<\/p>\n
