A record $1.075M donated for child abuse prevention

Miss Tennessee 2006 Blaire Pancake and Benji Wood joke with one  another as they ask for donations during the Circles of Hope Telethon to  benefit the Carl Perkins Center for the Prevention of Child Abuse on  Sunday.

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.
