RISMEDIA, February 18, 2013–RE/MAX Alliance is counting down to the 12th annual Alice’s 36 Hours for Kids Radiothon. The radiothon will broadcast live from Children’s Hospital Colorado on Denver radio station Alice 105.9. The event will run February 20-22 from 6 a.m. until 6 p.m. RE/MAX Alliance agents and volunteers will be taking calls from 6 a.m. to 8 a.m. both days.
During the three days, Alice 105.9 breaks from its daily format to live broadcast from the lobby of Children’s Hospital Colorado. Stories from various families, children and supporters are shared. Listeners will hear stories of hope, sacrifice, strength and survival. This has become one of the most compelling and moving radio events ever heard in Colorado. The Radiothon supports children and their families who depend on the world-class care that Children’s Hospital Colorado provides.
Last year’s event experienced an amazing outpour of support, raising over $1.8M during the three-day period. Over 5,500 new pledges were made 750 community volunteers gave their time and energy to make all of this possible.
Kim Hawkins, Vice President of RE/MAX Alliance, is a huge supporter of this event and has been actively involved each year since the Radiothon’s inception, helping to organize, recruit volunteers and spread the word throughout the community.
RE/MAX Alliance has over 70 volunteers that have stepped up to help out this wonderful cause.
“It’s heart warming to see so many members of the community and surrounding areas stepping up to make this year’s radiothon a huge success,” said Kim Hawkins. “There is no greater joy than coming together for the greater good and well being of our children.”
Children’s Hospital Colorado is a leader in providing the best healthcare outcomes for children. In 2011, 163,736 individual children were treated. There were 522,810 outpatient visits, the most child patients in one year than ever before. In 2011 more than 3,675 staff members as well as 1,582 pediatric specialists were all dedicated to providing the best care and experience for children and families.
