Rally with Chris Burton, in his FIGHT to beat Cancer!

Our dear friend Chris Burton needs our help.

For over 17 years, Chris has brought joy, laughter, and wonder to countless families throughout Kentucky and beyond through his business, PJ’s Magical Events. Whether performing as PJ the Clown, creating magical moments as a comedy magician, or bringing Christmas magic to life as one of the most beloved Santa Clauses in our community, Chris has dedicated his life to making others smile.

Chris’s Story

Chris Burton isn’t just an entertainer – he’s a pillar of our community. As an ordained minister, he’s traveled to Jamaica, Canada, Mexico, and across multiple states sharing the Gospel through his unique blend of ministry and entertainment. His comedy magic shows have delighted audiences at birthday parties, church events, library programs, and festivals for nearly two decades.

Those who know Chris describe him as reliable, talented, and authentic. Children are naturally drawn to him, and adults find themselves laughing alongside their kids during his performances. His balloon artistry goes far beyond simple animals – he creates intricate arches, bouquets, and custom designs that transform ordinary events into magical experiences.

The Challenge We Face

Chris has recently been diagnosed with cancer, and as a self-employed entertainer, he has no disability insurance or employee benefits to fall back on. As the sole breadwinner for his family – including his devoted wife and two children at home – Chris is facing the impossible choice between focusing on his health and providing for his family.

How You Can Help

We’re asking everyone to rally around Chris the same way he’s been there for all of us. Every dollar donated will go directly toward:

• Medical treatment costs and hospital bills

• Living expenses while Chris is unable to work

• Supporting his wife and children during this difficult time

• Ensuring the family can focus on Chris’s recovery without financial stress
