#1Saves8

By: Nick Liard

On November 23rd Nancy Griffin launched the Rich Griffin #1Saves8 campaign, six months after the passing of her husband and former KiSS morning co-host, Rich Griffin, to provide financial support to Northern Ontario transplant patients and their families.

Losing Rich Griffin hit the community of Sudbury hard, but in that tough situation there was a positive as his passing helped to save five lives and could help a number more through organ donation.

Rogers Radio made a donation of one thousand dollars today from our Corporate Recognition Program which will go to the campaign.

Griffin says since the launch, the community has been very supportive.

Director and General Manager of Ontario North, Peter McKeown says it was a special donation.

Next up for the Rich Griffin 1Saves8 Campaign is the Griff’s Anatomy Gala, which goes May 14th, 2016.
