Eleven-year-old Bailey Browning of Roanoke County, Virginia, admires the heroes on the action-adventure TV series Chuck<\/em>, but she herself is a real-life hero for St. Jude Children\u2019s Research Hospital in Memphis.<\/p>\n

The middle schooler first got involved with raising money for the Tennessee hospital six years ago when her kindergarten teacher, Joy Watson, launched a St. Jude Math-a-Thon on behalf of a student with leukemia.\u00a0 Participants earn donations for every math problem they finish.\u00a0 The money is then given to St. Jude\u2019s which treats patients regardless of their ability to pay.<\/p>\n

Because Chuck<\/em> is Browning\u2019s favorite TV show, she contacted stars Zachary Levi, Yvonne Strahovski, Adam Baldwin and others through Twitter.\u00a0 They shared links to her online donation page with their 250,000 Twitter followers, and contributed donations themselves.\u00a0 Over the past three years, Browning has raised more than $20,000.\u00a0 Though the youngster has never visited St. Jude\u2019s, she\u2019d like to work there someday doing celebrity relations.<\/p>\n

Compassionate hearts and social media can help save lives.<\/p>\n
