The Cares for Kids Radiothon celebrated its 20th year, raising over $237,000.

The 20th annual Cares for Kids Radiothon was held from Dec. 3-5 at the Children’s Hospital of Georgia. Today, it was announced that this year’s Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals fundraiser brought in $237,728 in donations and pledges.

Cares for Kids Radiothon is the largest single CMN Hospitals fundraiser for Children’s Hospital of Georgia.

Area iHeartMedia radio stations 104.3 WBBQ, 96.3 KISS-FM, 105.7 The Bull and television partners News 12/NBC 26 joined together over three days in support of Children’s, asking listeners to call in and become “miracle makers” for the area’s only children’s hospital.
