2026 KG95 Radiothon
Save the Date: Friday, December 11 on KG95!
When you support Radiothon, you help ensure families facing childhood cancer can keep gas in the tank, food on the table, and a roof overhead while their child is in treatment.
Why Radiothon?
15,000 families hear the words "Your child has cancer" each year. Bills pile up, while housing, groceries, and transportation are a necessity.
Medical bills can be delayed, but rent is due, bills still come, and food is a necessity. Families facing childhood cancer need help with everyday expenses. Pinky Swear Foundation provides financial support for housing, food, and transportation so families can focus on their child.
You can make a difference
Meet All-Star Kayla
A listener told Kayla's family about the help Pinky Swear could offer after hearing about it through Radiothon. Your support provided them with food during her chemo stay.
"We spent the gift card at the grocery store in between rounds of chemotherapy. I remember that it was such a help. It was two weeks of food, which made a real difference."
- All-Star Kayla's mom, Julia
