We have an army of volunteers who have invaded the GNA studios in Schenectady, and we welcome them because it's all for a great cause - our annual St. Jude Radiothon to help raise money for a cause near and dear to our hearts. Check out some of the 'behind the scenes' photos of what's happening here when you call to help out. If you haven't called yet, please do at 518-346-0920 OR make a donation
