Children’s Miracle Network
Collaborates with Beasley Broadcasting for First Annual Radiothon
(Henderson, Nev.; February 23, 2011). Children’s Miracle Network, a nonprofit organization whose local proceeds benefit St. Rose Dominican Hospitals’ pediatric departments, is holding its first annual three-day radiothon with Beasley Broadcasting’s AM 720 KDWN, 102.7 The Coyote, and 96.3 KKLZ, Thursday-Saturday, February 24-26, 2011.
“KDWN and The Coyote will be broadcasting live from our St. Rose Dominican Hospitals-Siena Campus lobby throughout the fundraising event,” said Charlie Guida, president, St. Rose Dominican Health Foundation. “Families will tell their miracle stories, and we’ll have a few special guests. Our goal is to have members of the community call in pledges and contribute. Donations can be made by credit card, check, online, cash – even spare change. Every donation makes a difference by ensuring that sick children in our community get the medical treatment – and special attention – they need.”
In southern Nevada, 100 percent of every dollar raised by Children’s Miracle Network in our community goes to St. Rose Dominican Hospitals’ Pediatric Centers to provide state-of-the art treatment and care, specialized pediatric medical equipment, health education, and charity care to those families who are most in need.
