a message from the president

Picture
Tonight was a blessed night. I am finished with my year as President of our local ESA chapter! All I can be is humbled and awe struck by what a giving little town that Blytheville is. Throughout the year, we have reached out to our city for contributions of money, door prizes, sponsorships and the list goes on and on. ESA has always been helped by whomever we asked willingly. 

The main place we raise funds for is St. Jude Hospital in Memphis, but we also contribute to local charities such as The Haven, Red Cross, Humane Society, Mississippi County Union Mission and scholarships at ANC to name a few. Thanks to Ritter Communications and Sudbury Broadcasting, we reach a tremendous amount of people for our yearly St. Jude Radio Cablethon. 

The culmination of individuals to corporate donors helped us raise over $212,000 this year for the kids at St. Jude Hospital! A place where a sick child and their parents are given the hope of another birthday, growing up to have their first day of school, prom night and driving a car for the first time! I know of nothing that could be more painful as a parent to watch your child suffer. That's why we stand on corners and call people and ask for money so sick children can live to enjoy the simple things in life that most of us take for granted everyday! 

God created each of us for a purpose, whether it be working in the background, being financially blessed and able to give or given intelligence like the doctors and researchers who find that one link to a cure for diseases. We are all just what we are supposed to be and placed where we are supposed to be!
