Radiothon, ‘Music for Miracles' to raise funds for local children's hospital
GREENVILLE, N.C. (WNCT) — The 28th annual Children's Miracle Network Hospital radiothon will take place on March 27-28, 2025.
The radiothon, 'Music for Miracles,' will happen on 107.9 WNCT, along with other Inner Banks Media's stations: Talk 96.3 and 103.7, Oldies 94.1 and 102.7, and 94.3 The Game.
All of the funds raised through this event will help support the James and Connie Maynard Children's Hospital at ECU Medical Center, which serves pediatric inpatient and outpatient needs across the 29-county region in eastern North Carolina.
'The Radiothon stands out as one of our most significant annual events, and we are incredibly thankful for the unwavering commitment of the team at 107.9 WNCT and Inner Banks Media. Broadcasting live for 12 hours over two consecutive days is no small feat, and it's supported by extensive preparation and behind-the-scenes efforts,' said Elise Ironmonger, Director of Programs, ECU Health Foundation. 'This event wouldn't be possible without the collaboration of hospital leaders, team members, and, most importantly, the brave miracle children and their families who share their heartfelt stories. We encourage everyone to tune in and be inspired by the incredible impact taking place every day at Maynard Children's Hospital.'
The event has raised over $3.9 million since it began in 1988, which goes directly to enhancing the programs and services of Maynard Children's Hospital.
The funds raised help to purchase life-saving medical equipment, support patient and team member education, provide diversionary items to comfort children and normalize the hospital experience, and contribute to building new state-of-the-art facilities.
'Once again, we are thrilled to have the radiothon on all our IBX Media stations to raise funds for James and Connie Maynard Children's Hospital. It's the highlight of our year to support the children's hospital,' Inner Banks Media, president, Henry Hinton said. 'I've personally had a grandson who needed care there, and it is a true blessing for all of eastern North Carolina to have it here. We're looking forward to two exciting days and hope everyone will participate as they are able.'
Anyone who wants to tune in to this radiothon can head to 107.9 WNCT and enjoy 12 hours of live broadcast from 6 a.m. to 6 p.m. on March 27 and 28.
