Cork’s 96FM Giving for Living Radiothon gets underway
The annual Cork’s 96FM’s Giving for Living Radiothon is getting underway tomorrow (Thursday 26th May 2016) at 6am. This is the 9th Annual Event and the cumulative total raised so far is in excess of €3.5 million.
Money raised is to support Cancer Services in Cork provided through the Radiothon’s charity partners: Mercy Hospital Foundation; CUH Charity; Marymount Hospice; ARC House and Breakthrough Cancer.
All 96FM programming between 6am and 7pm on Thursday and Friday and between 10am and 6pm on Saturday will be broadcast from a special studio at the Mercy Hospital. There will be regular links from the Cork’s 96FM Streetfleet based at the other charity locations.
Listeners are being asked to hold “Coffee Breaks” to raise money. Again this year, Bus Eireann drivers will man the city’s “biggest change collector box” at Cork’s Bus Station on Parnell Place. Schools have also been asked to sign up for a “No Uniform Day”.
