Denver Radio: KALC Raises $1.3M For Children's Hospital

Entercom raised over $1.3 million for Children’s Hospital Colorado, a proud member of the Children’s Miracle Network®, during KALC Alice 105.9’s "Cares for Kids Radiothon” in Denver. The amount donated during the 20th annual radiothon brought the overall fundraising total to over $24 million since 2001.

“In an especially trying year, we’re proud to continue our yearly tradition of amplifying our station’s voice to assist the Children’s Hospital Colorado,” said Chuck Sullivan, Senior Vice President and Market Manager, Entercom Denver. “Despite the unique challenges we’re all facing today, we’re blown away by the unwavering support from our listeners as we stand with the hospital’s selfless mission. We’re proud to unite with them and leverage our scale and resources to help make a difference for these children and their families.”
