Put Your Money Where the Miracles Are!
The 28th annual News Radio 103.1 & 810 WGY and 99.5 The River Cares for Kids Radiothon will celebrate the strength and bravery of local children and their families cared for at Albany Medical Center. The event benefits the Bernard & Millie Duker Children's Hospital, supporting programs, advanced technology, staffing, research, and more.
For two days, listen to more than a dozen families share their personal stories about the difficult conditions that brought them to our children's hospital, and how the care by our dedicated doctors, nurses, and staff members gave them comfort, hope, and positive outcomes. Your support allows us to continue that care, close to home.
