The KiSS 105.3 team held our 14th annual Radiothon of Hope in support of the Northern Cancer Foundation from 6am to 6pm on Thursday, November 14th. This year, we were working together to raise money for a new clinical trial space to help advance cancer research and treatment options for people living in Sudbury and Northern Ontario.

Throughout the day, we heard from cancer survivors and medical staff, who spoke about the exceptional service at the Northeast Cancer Centre and the need to make this space a priority. Thanks to YOUR generosity, we were able to raise a whopping $60,000 during our live 12 hour broadcast from 6am to 6pm. This amount will allow us to purchase EVERYTHING that they had on their wishlist for this space! This year, we had the opportunity to see the 26 news chairs that were purchased as a result of last year’s Radiothon – and we can’t wait to see what the new clinical trial space will look like next year. This brings our 13 year total to $1,220,000!

We’d also like to thank Aegysis Cloud Solutions, New Sudbury Centre, Gateway Casinos, Sudbury Wolves, Sudbury Five and OLG for their generous donations.

Check out the interviews that we played throughout the day here.
