Responding to the call of their favourite hosts, thousands of listeners joined the ‘Circle of Hugs’ with a monthly donation of $20 or more.  All funds raised go to the Healthy Kids Fund to meet the most urgent needs of the hospital, which include medical and surgical equipment and funding for innovative projects.
