WEBSTER GROVES, Mo. — A Webster Groves couple will be on The Ellen DeGeneres Show Monday!

Ellen will surprise Kelley and Todd McNeely. Todd is a firefighter and paramedic in Webster Groves.

During his appearance, Todd will talk about the Webster Groves Firefighters Community Outreach and "how all the firefighters in his firehouse donate a portion of their paychecks toward the nonprofit to provide their community with fundraisers, scholarships, and donations," according to a press release from the show.

Seven of Todd's co-workers will surprise him in studio and others will appear on-screen via a live shot, the release said.

Kelley will also play the  “Ellen’s Road to Riches” game, which will win her $25,000 for her family and $25,000 for the Webster Groves Fire Department, courtesy of Honey Nut Cheerios, according to the release.
