1 800 GET THINSM Supports Knowledge Is Power
LOS ANGELES - (BUSINESS WIRE) - 1
800 GET THINSM is proud to sponsor Wendy Carrillo in this
year's Walk for Wishes and encourages you to live a healthier life, get
involved in your community and help brighten children's lives, one step
at a time! Wendy Carrillo is the host of Knowledge
Is Power, Power 106 FM's Los Angeles community platform where
awareness on issues that matter to Angelenos are raised. Knowledge Is
Power is an open dialogue with experts where issues ranging from health,
education, the economy, and politics, to gangs, youth in prison, the
wars in Iraq and Afghanistan and their respective impact on our
communities are discussed. Wendy opens the phone lines to Power 106
listeners to contribute to the conversation and not only discuss the
issues, but come up with creative ways to find solutions and get
involved. In her "Hold Them Accountable" segment, elected
officials ranging from school board members to members of Congress have
discussed what they are doing to improve our neighborhoods and quality
of life.
This year, Wendy will be joining the thousands of people who will be
participating in the Make-A-Wish Foundation of Greater Los Angeles's
4th Annual Walk
for Wishes, a 2 mile walk-a-thon event aimed at encouraging kids and
families to be actively involved in fundraising to give back to the
children of Los Angeles who are battling life-threatening medical
conditions enriching the human experience with hope, strength and joy.
This year's Walk for Wishes will be held on March 5, 2011 at Mattel Inc.
