Airwaves for Health Radiothon 2025

Donate To Radiothon

GX94 & FoxFM Radiothon 2024

Airwaves For Health 2024

During the Radiothon, we interviewed doctors, nurses and other healthcare staff about the benefits of the new equipment we need in the hospital, as well as Suncrest College and Yorkton Hospital staff regarding the need to expand training opportunities. 


We are raising funds for key areas in the Yorkton Regional Hospital as well as to purchase equipment for Suncrest College to deliver the new Diagnostic Sonography program. Some of the equipment for the hospital will allow for new services and some will upgrade existing services. the equipment is:

 

  1. A high volume chemical analyzer for the lab
  2. Limb positioning equipment for orthopedic surgery
  3. Medication packaging equipment
  4. Reclining chairs and infusion pumps for Chemotherapy


The work we are doing with the College is an expansion of our normal work and is in an effort to address specific staff shortages. There has been a shortage of ultrasound technicians for 20 years, most hospitals in rural Saskatchewan are always trying to recruit.

Coverage

Thank you, GX94 and The Fox 94.1, who covered all on-air costs! This means that 100% of the donations we received from this Radiothon can be used by us.

Total Raised ~ $356,445.84
