NEWARK, N.J., Nov. 10, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Panasonic, a global leader in home entertainment products, is partnering with the top-rated and nationally-syndicated Elvis Duran & The Morning Show, to announce 30 Days of Giving. Today, through December 9, ten percent of sales1 of all Panasonic headphones purchased at Panasonic.com will be donated to St. Jude Children's Research Hospital® for children battling cancer and other life-threatening diseases.
The program involves Panasonic's complete line-up of headphones including water-resistant earbuds for running and the gym, noise-cancelling headphones for travel, Bluetooth® headphones for wireless streaming and the legendary Technics headphones for audiophiles.
Elvis Duran is a longtime St. Jude supporter and welcomes the opportunity to use broadcast and online channels to support the mission of St. Jude Children's Research Hospital: Finding cures. Saving children®. St. Jude is leading the way the world understands, treats and defeats childhood cancer and other life-threatening diseases.
