The eighth annual News/Talk 750 WSB Care-a-Thon benefiting the Aflac Cancer Center and Blood Disorders Service of Children's Healthcare of Atlanta will be on Thursday and Friday, August 21st and 22nd!

This 37-hour marathon broadcast features stories of hope and inspiration from Aflac Cancer Center patients, families and staff. With the help of WSB special hosts Scott Slade, Neal Boortz and Clark Howard, the annual Care-a-Thons have raised more than $5.7 million for the Aflac Cancer Center at Children's.

Recognized as one of the top three pediatric cancer centers in the country by Child Magazine, the Aflac Cancer Center is one of the largest childhood cancer and hematology programs in the country, serving infants, children, adolescents and young adults with cancer and blood disorders. Staffed by a multidisciplinary team of pediatric cancer specialists, the Aflac Cancer Center provides advanced and innovative diagnostics, clinical care and research options as well as unique services such as the Cancer Survivor and Blood and Marrow Transplantation program.

The Aflac Cancer Center treats more than 300 new cancer patients each year, has over 22,000 visits to its outpatient facilities each year and follows nearly 1,500 children with sickle cell disease, hemophilia and other bleeding disorders. Directed by pediatric hematologists/oncologists, our multidisciplinary team is able to offer children and families the emotional, physical and spiritual support they need during their treatment journey. Through child-friendly equipment, programs and facilities, we care for children from infancy to young adulthood.
