D/FW Radio: The Fan Raises Over $88,000 for Disabled Adults


Audacy Dallas raised over $88,000 for My Possibilities, a 501(c)(3) organization serving adults with disabilities such as Down Syndrome, Autism, Asperger’s, Prader-Willi, head injuries and more, as part of 105.3 The Fan (KRLD-FM)’s 13th annual Piece-A-Thon. 

On November 22, midday show “K&C Masterpiece” co-hosts Kevin Hageland, Cory Mageors and Mike Bacsik took over the station’s airwaves from 5:30 a.m. to 7:00 p.m. CT and welcomed additional Fan talent and special guests throughout the day. 

Special guests included Dallas Cowboys Executive Vice President and Chief Brand Officer Charlotte jones, Cowboys tight end, former Dallas Stars goaltender and current Dallas Stars Foundation President Marty Turco, former Texas Rangers pitcher Derek Holland, Rangers Hall of Fame play-by-play announcer Eric Nadel, and German actor, comedian, and musician Flula Borg. 

The event featured a live auction with special items and experiences to help raise money, with 100% of the proceeds benefiting My Possibilities. 

My Possibilities is the first full-day, full-year educational program in Collin County. My Possibilities is designed to provide people with cognitive disabilities the chance to continue their education, providing vocational skills, socialization opportunities, trade skills, and independent living skills to HIPsters that give them the chance to live the life they deserve. 

105.3 The Fan’s Piece-A-Thon is a part of Audacy’s commitment to making a meaningful difference at scale. Audacy uses its reach and personal connection with listeners to advance causes that promote strong mental health and build sound communities.
