It’s always nice to take note of a successful radiothon, and this month, Audacy’s 105.9 KALC(FM) in Denver raised just over $1 million to support Children’s Hospital Colorado.
The 2026 “Alice 105.9 Cares for Kids Radiothon” marked the 25th anniversary of the partnership between the station and the Children’s Miracle Network. Since the event’s inception in 2001, the station has raised approximately $27 million for pediatric care.
The broadcast took place Feb. 12 at the Audacy Denver studios, featuring four of KALC’s on-air shows.
Throughout the day, the station featured interviews with patients, families and frontline workers from Children’s Hospital Colorado.
The Aurora, Colo., headquartered hospital is the only nonprofit pediatric healthcare system in a seven-state region, serving approximately 300,000 children annually.
The funds raised are slated to support the development of new medical technologies and expand expert care access within the Front Range region.
