Interview: 18 Wheels and 1 Big Heart to benefit LeBonheur Children's Hospital
SUMMARY: 18 Wheels and One Big Heart Truck Show is happening in Tupelo to benefit Le Bonheur Children's Hospital. Co-founded by Molly Sims and her husband, who is a truck driver veteran, the event was inspired by their son, a two-time Le Bonheur miracle child. Last year, they raised $4,250 for the hospital. Participants can bring their trucks without pre-registering, while spectators can enjoy food trucks and bounce houses. The event will take place at Tupelo Furniture Market building next weekend. The funds raised will go towards the hospital's general fund to support their compassionate care for children and families.
Molly Sims, the organizer for 18 Wheels and 1 Big Heart, joined WTVA 9 News TODAY to talk about why she and her husband created this event to give back to LeBonheur Children's Hospital.
