WDRB meteorologist Jude Redfield is once again inviting viewers to help decorate his annual “Jude’s Jingle Tree” as the station kicks off its eighth year of holiday cheer.

The festive tradition encourages viewers to send in ornaments to help create the most perfect Christmas tree — and support a good cause. This year’s effort will once again benefit Louisville’s Home of the Innocents, which provides care and support for vulnerable children and families.

Jude's Jingle Tree started in 2017 with an idea to just collect ornaments, decorate the station tree and then donate the decorations to the Home of the Innocents.

By 2018, Jingle Tree started collecting donations for HOI and raised $6,750. In 2019, the total was about the same collecting $7,000, and in 2020 the total went to $7,879, and by 2021, the total grew to $12,793.

But Jude wanted to do more, and so did our viewers. In 2022, the donation raised by Jingle Tree went up to $98,359! In 2023, it was $105,000.
