 All this month, get up to $50 off any Android smartphone from Appalachian Wireless, any Android you desire. All $50 off with two-year agreement, better service, bigger savings, that's today's Appalachian Wireless and East Kentucky Network Company. East Kentucky Broadcasting teamed up with Pikeville Medical Center today in an effort to raise money for those affected by the recent hurricanes in Texas and Florida. Money raised during the live radio telethon will benefit the American Red Cross. In these times of need, the Red Cross shows up even before the event if we have enough leeway like we do with hurricanes and we set up recovery needs for the next steps for people to be safe and well and taken care of. We feed, we make sure they have water, shelter, the very basic needs to get them through the next few days and then into the recovery process. Organizers say the response was phenomenal and they were not surprised by the many donations that were received. We have helped out in so many different situations, tornadoes, hurricanes, tsunamis, so we really put together a good team that can pull these things together and most of all it's the people in our community that answer the call when we say let's help, they do it. I think Kentucky people are the most generous people I've ever met in my life and I couldn't be happier. Donations came in large and small quantities, however, organizers say it was a team effort anchored by the community. We are coming together to do what we do best right here in Eastern Kentucky and that's of course to help people who are in need. We had a massive donation today from our friends at Double Quick, can't thank them enough, $5,000 today donated to this cause. They took our donation jars, 35 of them put them in all their stores and then they kicked in a little bit as well and came up with $5,000 for the effort today. If you were unable to donate during today's live radio telethon, you can still do so by going online to ekycares.com. In Pikeville, Shelby Steele, EKB News.
