PEORIA- Musicians and singers donated their talents Sunday to kids in need.
The Pediatric Resource Center hosted its All Star holiday concert at Bradley University. It's a fundraiser to help the center continue its work at the University of Illinois College of Medicine at Peoria.
In the past few months, the center said it's seen an 18 percent jump in casework.
"We've noticed an increase in the last few years with the economy. Certainly that we've had more cases of concern and suspicion for child abuse and neglect," said Channing Petrak with the Pediatric Resource Center.
This year the show featured acts like the Robin Crowe band and the Bradley Chamber singers.
