PROVIDENCE, R.I. -- Joined by WPRI Channel 12, the Meeting Street School will hold its 37th annual telethon from 7 to 11 p.m. Saturday.
The school said families that prefer to join in person are encouraged to visit its premises at 1000 Eddy St.. There will not only be able to directly see items that will be auctioned online, but will be able to meet some of the Meeting Street children, partake of activities in the school gym and mingle with some local TV and radio personalities, according to organizers.
The fundraiser goes to support programs for the 3,000 children and families who receive services from the agency annually
