The Montreal Children’s Hospital Foundation and radio stations CJAD 800, Virgin Radio 95.9, CHOM 97 7 and TSN Radio 690, are proud to announce that the 2016 edition of the Caring for Kids Radiothon, aired on June 2, raised an outstanding ­­­­­­$1,300,428 for the Montreal Children’s Hospital’s young patients.

Live from the P.K. Subban Atrium, almost forty patients and their families courageously shared how the hospital’s professionals saved their children’s lives.

Responding to the call of their favourite hosts, thousands of listeners joined the Circle of Hugs with a monthly donation of $20 or more.

All funds raised go to the Healthy Kids Fund to meet the most urgent needs of the hospital, which include medical and surgical equipment and funding for innovative projects.
