The live event began on Friday, December 7th from 6 a.m. to 7 p.m. (PST) and it continued on Saturday, December 8 from 6 a.m. to 7 p.m. (PST). Listeners of 93.3FM La Raza tuned in to hear patients and their families sharing stories of healing, dreams and miracles all thanks to UCSF Benioff Children’s Hospitals.

For the 10th year, the Latinos in the Bay Area put their heart in the Radiothon to benefit Children’s Hospital in Oakland, California. This time $500,000.00 was collected from Friday December 7th to Saturday, December 8th, where the radio team, 93.3FM La Raza, volunteers, and the donors made once again the Radiothon a complete success.

The “Radiothon for Kids” was hosted by the radio personalities from 93.3FM La Raza (KRZZ), such as El Terrible, “Al Aire con El Terrible”, Terry Cortez “El Terrible”, Fabian Serrano, Marlene Quinto, Chikilin “Adal Loreto”, Gilberto Ríos “El Compa Gil”, Ernesto de Santiago “El Barzón”, among others who broadcasted live from the Chavez Supermarkets, to serve the area of San Francisco, San Jose.

“Nothing is more important to our future than helping those who devote their lives to the health and well-being of children. It is an honor for 93.3FM La Raza to organize this event for 10th consecutive year and we are proud of our contribution to this community. The power of radio is alive and well in San Francisco, San Jose through KRZZ, especially with events like this one” said Christian de la Cruz, VP of Sales and General Manager of 93.3FM La Raza.

“The UCSF Benioff Children’s Hospitals truly appreciates the significant efforts of 93.3FM La Raza and its followers along with the commitment they demonstrate by helping the sick children in our community. “Radiothon for Kids”, provided the opportunity for listeners to hear anecdotes directly from patients and their families about the care and recovery obtained through the help provided by UCSF Benioff Children’s Hospitals, regardless of their ability to pay for receiving aid”, said Elena Jovel, Director of Programming at 93.3FM LaRaza.

Celebrities have always been present at this event and this year was no different. Chiquis Rivera, the female revelation of the Regional Mexican genre, was present during our “Radiothon for Kids” on Saturday, December 8th.

The UCSF Benioff Children’s Hospitals receives more than 250,000 patients each year. Approximately 27% of the patients are Hispanic, so Radiothon for Kids will create awareness of this fact and the services that the hospital offers.
