Pure Country 91.7 and the Maison McCulloch Hospice will host the annual Care-A-Thon on Thursday, July 11, 2024, to raise money for the hospice. The event will hit the airwaves, encouraging listeners to donate and support end-of-life care in the Sudbury community.
Event Details and How to Donate
The Care-A-Thon will feature on-air appeals, interviews, and stories from hospice staff, volunteers, and families. Donations can be made by phone or online during the broadcast. All funds raised will go directly to Maison McCulloch Hospice, which provides palliative care and support services at no cost to residents and their families.
Impact on the Community
According to hospice officials, the Care-A-Thon is a vital fundraiser that helps sustain operations and expand programs. Last year's event raised over $100,000, and organizers hope to exceed that amount this year. The hospice serves more than 200 families annually, relying on community donations to cover costs not funded by the government.
