Miley Cyrus, of Disney Channel’s hit television show Hannah Montana, and pop singer Chris Brown, the 2006 Billboard Music Artist of the Year, signed on as video hosts for St. Jude’s Math-A-Thon® program.
Math-A-Thon, now in its 29th year, is one of St. Jude’s most successful fundraising campaigns and one of America’s largest education-based fundraisers.
The videos will be shown in thousands of schools across the country to help educate students about Math-A-Thon. In Cyrus’ video, Math-A-Thon Live, she encourages students to get excited about math and shows students how they use math in their everyday lives and how, even at a young age, they can help other kids. In his video, Brown encourages students to raise both awareness and funds for St. Jude. Each video will highlight the singers’ hits, Cyrus’ "Right Here" and Brown’s "Run It."

Cyrus, who is the youngest artist in recording history to have two No. 1 albums in less than a year, is committed to helping the kids at St. Jude. "It’s great to be able to encourage kids to learn and help other kids at the same time," she said.
Likewise, Brown understands the importance fundraising plays in helping the patients at St. Jude. "I want to show students that math and fundraising are still ‘cool,’" he said.
