Children's Hospital Foundation (Caring for Oklahoma's Children)

Phones rang and pledges came in during the 2009 KXY Loves Kids Radiothon that raised over $141,000 for Children’s Miracle Network.

KXY 96.1 Clear Channel Radio hosts Dan Stroud, Bill Reed, Patti Garrett and Tom Travis asked listeners for their support from 6 a.m. to 6 p.m. November 4 – 6 at the Children’s Hospital at OU Medical Center.

Over 550 people chose to become KXY Loves Kids Club Members by pledging to donate $15.00 a month. KXY Loves Kids Club Members help improve the health of Oklahoma’s sickest children. Also, a craft kit bearing the name of the KXY Loves Kids Club Member is delivered to a child’s bedside.

“Miracle” children shared their amazing stories of hope as they described living a life of cancer, diabetes and other illnesses.

“Next year, we hope listeners will continue to be inspired by miraculous survival stories from our amazing kids so we can continue in our efforts to fund pediatric research, education and clinical care for Oklahoma’s kids” said Jan Dunham, Children’s Miracle Network Director.

The 2010 KXY Loves Kids Radiothon is scheduled for November 10 – 12. Make sure you tune in to 96.1 FM to show your support for Children’s Miracle Network and all Oklahoma children.
