Connie and Curtis, radio personalities on Milwaukee’s 97.3 Radio Now, recently hosted a Radio-A-Thon fundraiser for Make-A-Wish Foundation of Wisconsin.
The 24-hour radio-a-thon raised just over $212,000 for the Foundation and featured live interviews with wish families every hour and additional interviews with local medical professionals and supporters. The money raised will help grant over 40 wishes for Wisconsin children.
“We are completely thrilled with the generosity of Z104 and 97.3 Radio Now’s listeners,” said Patti Gorsky, president and chief executive officer of Make-A-Wish Foundation of Wisconsin. “We are so grateful to Connie and Curtis and the entire staff at Clear Channel for helping share the impact a wish makes on a child with a life-threatening medical condition, his or her family and the community.”
Listeners supported the Foundation by calling in donations, giving online and participating in an online auction.
