North Texas, you did something extraordinary.
During KRLD’s first-ever Radiothon for Make-A-Wish North Texas, our listeners, partners, and community came together in a way that absolutely blew us away. Over the course of one unforgettable day, you helped raise $27,494 — real money that will fuel real wishes for children battling critical illnesses right here in our own backyard.
From the moment we signed on at 5 a.m. at NFM in The Colony, we felt it — the calls, the messages, the families who stopped by to share their stories, the businesses who stepped up, and the steady stream of generosity that never let up. Every donation, no matter the size, pushed us forward. Every share on social media helped spread the word. Every listener who paused their day to be part of this mission helped turn hope into something children can actually hold onto.
We also want to thank our incredible partners at Make-A-Wish North Texas, whose work changes lives in ways that can’t be measured in dollars alone. And of course, NFM at Grandscape, who opened their doors, embraced this vision, and hosted the entire broadcast with energy and heart.
But most of all — thank you, North Texas. You showed up. You gave generously. And because of you, more kids will get the chance to experience joy, strength, and hope at a moment when they need it most.
This community is something special. And yesterday, you proved it again.
