Corus Radiothon
Each January, dozens of families share their Stollery stories during a two-day broadcast on CISN Country 103.9, giving listeners a glimpse into what everyday life is like for Stollery families from backyards across Alberta. 630 CHED joins in with one full day of live coverage dedicated to sharing more inspiring Stollery stories. The Corus Radiothon is also supported by the CHUCK @ 92.5 and Global News Radio 880 Edmonton.
Global Edmonton will also be harnessing the power of radio and television together while inspiring new and returning donors to invest in our world-class children’s hospital.
