Radio personalities Chris Farber and Jeff Robb will share inspiring stories and interviews from children and families that have been treated at UI Children’s Hospital. To date, the radiothon has raised more than $740,000 in support of UI Children’s Hospital.

For information about the radiothon, visit y105music.com, or contact the Children’s Miracle Network at 319-467-3818.

The money raised by the radiothon goes directly to new pediatric research and treatments, kid-sized state-or-the-art equipment, hospital enhancements for a home-like atmosphere, and educational materials for patient families. It’s hard to walk into the UI Children’s Hospital without noticing some of the improvements made by the Children’s Miracle Network. Staying in a hospital is never fun, but the efforts put forth by the Children’s Miracle Network have made Peanut’s stays much more tolerable.
