WGN Radio host John Williams and his listeners raised $23,000 yesterday for Chicago's Animal Welfare League.

Williams wanted to help the organization after hearing that thieves had stolen and destroyed three air conditioning units at the facility, leaving more than 100 animals in the heat. Here's what Williams said about the fundraising efforts:
"People WANT to help -- they just sometimes need someone to lead," said Williams. "We said, 'Let's DO this,' and our listeners jumped on board. It was amazing to experience."
