Sonny Melendrez was born to inspire.  

Sonny travels across the country and around the globe to entertain and inspire audiences of all ages. 

Twice named Billboard Magazine's "Radio Personality of the Year," his enthusiasm for life is evident as host of various radio and television programs. In addition, he was awarded the honor of Hispanic Radio Personality of the Year by the National Nosotros Organization. 

He was inducted into the Texas Radio Hall Of Fame and has the honor of being included in the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame as one of the Top 100 Radio Personalities of All-Time.

Melendrez has hosted drive-time shows at some of America's great radio stations, including KIIS, KMPC, KFI, KMGG and KRLA in Los Angeles.

Blessed with multiple talents, Sonny is equally at home serving as TV host, actor, radio personality, writer, commercial spokesman, comedian, motivational speaker, or cartoon voice artist.

He has hosted or been featured speaker at such prestigious events as the White House Hispanic Heritage Awards; the National "Just Say No To Drugs" Rally at the Washington Monument; and the USO 50th Anniversary Gala at the Ambassador's Palace in Paris, France with guest of honor, the late Princess Grace of Monaco.

As host of the award-winning children’s television series, ‘You And Me, Kid,” on the Disney Channel, Sonny displayed his natural talent for working with children. 

Sonny's ability and willingness to rally people behind a cause is one reason he is involved in so many charities, both locally and nationally. He was named Inc. Magazine's "Socially Responsible Entrepreneur of the Year" and awarded the “2000 Marketing Philanthropist Lifetime Achievement Award" by the Sales and Marketing Executives of San Antonio.

The City of San Antonio named the Sonny Melendrez Community Center located on the city's West Side in his honor as way to say “thank you” for his community involvement and commitment to disadvantaged youth.

Programs that benefit children have always been a priority for Sonny Melendrez.  One of the projects of which he is most proud is the children's version of "We Are The World," which he created in Los Angeles in 1985.  Over 1500 children participated in the recording and video, and proceeds from record sales benefited USA For Africa.  Sonny received a Grammy nomination for "Best Children's Recording." 

The Sonny Melendrez Children’s Foundation was created in 1998 to help disabled and disadvantaged youth in San Antonio.  It is estimated that he has helped to raise over 100 million dollars in cash, goods and services for local and national charities during the last 25 years! 

Colleges, universities, school districts, and corporate groups of all types have been inspired by Sonny’s captivating motivational presentations. His topics are designed to fire up team members, teachers, students, parents, and companies to get involved and make a difference in the world around them.
