K99.1 FM nominated most caring radio station in Children's Miracle Network contest
Dayton Children's could win $50,000
Foresters has partnered with the Children's Miracle Network to find North America's Most Caring Radio Station. The winning radio station will receive a $50,000 donation from the life insurance company. The winning radio station will then donate the money to the Children's Miracle Network hospital(s) in their community.
K99.1 FM has been nominated to participate in the contest. Dayton Children's has partnered with K99.1FM to broadcast the Annual Cares for Kids Radiothon every November with morning show hosts Nancy Wilson and Steve Kerrigan. Since 1998, K99 has raised over $2 million for Dayton Children's. All the money stays local and goes directly for much needed medical equipment used to treat infants, children and teens in the Miami Valley region.
