We hold this Radiothon to highlight and explain what we are raising money for and how it will provide a benefit to our community. This year the Radiothon will be held (dates). It is sponsored by the two local radio stations GX94 and The Fox 94.1, who cover all on air costs. That means 100% of donations can be used by The Health Foundation to purchase medical equipment!
During the Radiothon we will interview doctors, nurses and other healthcare staff about the benefits of the new equipment we need in the hospital, as well as college and hospital staff regarding the need to expand training opportunities. Additionally, we will check in with staff about the equipment we raised funds for last year and how it has benefitted families.
