Whopping $418,464!!!
On September 26th, starting at the early hours of 7 am, Fairchild Radio DJ's hosted the Fairchild SickKids Fundraising Day live at the SickKids Hospital.
Behind closed doors, miracles truly do happen at SickKids Hospital. Staff and patients alike would Iike to thank everyone for their generosity and support as they continue the battle to make sure every child is healthy.
This year's amount of donations surpassed last year, totalling in at a whopping $418,464.
Thank you to everyone for their support and donations!
What goes on behind the doors at The Hospital for Sick Children (SickKids) is nothing short of miraculous: world-class medical staff doing ground-breaking medical research, and achieving extraordinary medical breakthroughs, all in hopes that they can save a kid’s life.
However, these medical researchers are also facing a serious challenge. After six long decades, the SickKids building requires critical improvements so that doctors and patients can continue to provide (and receive) world-class care.
To support the reconstruction of facilities at SickKids, the Chinese community is encouraged to actively participate in fundraising activities, such as the Community Rally. Your contribution will ensure that Toronto’s SickKids Hospital will continue to be able to open their doors and help countless children have a happier and healthier future.
For this fundraising event, SickKids Hospital has made teddy bears to thank their supporters. There are six types, each of which represents a child with deep ties to the hospital. These teddy bears are SickKids’ way of thanking you for not only supporting the reconstruction of facilities but also for supporting these brave and strong children in their battles.
For more details, please make sure you stay tuned on September 26th as Fairchild Television and Fairchild Radio host the Fairchild SickKids Fundraising Day!
