Care 4 Kids Radiothon

 

Huge THANK YOU to all the 98FM listeners who helped us raise over €117,000 over the 2013 Care 4 Kids Radiothon.

 98FM Care for Kids Radiothon is a broadcast marathon in aid of Temple Street Children’s University Hosptial , The National Children’s Hospital Tallaght and Our Lady’s Hospital for Sick Children, Crumlin . 98FM will broadcast from all hospitals and will be speaking with patients, doctors, hospital staff and parents in an effort to highlight both moving and poignant stories from children all over the country. In what is an extraordinary insight into what happens in our children’s hospitals on a daily basis, listeners will hear stories of remarkable bravery, from heartbreaking to uplifting, in order to raise much needed funds. Here's what staff at the 3 Children's Hospitals have to say about the event:

"Massive thanks and appreciation to our friends in 98fm and especially the listeners who give so generouslly each year when we open our doors of our hospital and tell our stories each year for our amazing "Care for Kids Radiothon".
