A record $1.075M donated for child abuse prevention

Orlando Martinez stayed up late in Iraq last year to try to watch his daughter sing for the Circles of Hope Telethon via an Internet feed. About halfway through the event, the connection went down.

On Sunday evening, Martinez sat in the audience at the Carl Perkins Civic Center — relaxed and smiling — as 11-year-old Maggie took the stage to sing.
