On Saturday, November 23, supporters in more than 75 communities across the country will participate in the St. Jude Give thanks. Walk. This exciting, family-friendly event helps raise funds to support the lifesaving mission of St. Jude Children's Research Hospital. Our friend Chastity Schexnayder, with the Acadiana group Zoie's Angels, stopped by to talk about why it is important for her family to participate in the Lafayette St Jude Walk this year, and why they continue to help in the fight against childhood cancer in her daughter Zoie's memory. The Walk begins at 9:00am at Parc Sans Souci, and participant check in is at 8:00.
