Mix 106.5 (WWMX-FM), an Audacy station in Baltimore, raised over $1.4 million during its 37th annual radiothon benefitting Johns Hopkins Children’s Center (JHCC). All proceeds support JHCC’s mission of providing inclusive, family-centered care, while pioneering pediatric research and training the next generation of medical leaders. Since the radiothon’s inception in 1989, Mix 106.5 has helped raise over $32 million. 

The 37th Annual Mix 106.5 Radiothon was hosted by “Kramer & Jess” hosts Steve Kramer and Jessica Dutra, midday host Corinna Delgado and “Kramer & Jess” producer Charlotte Smith on February 26 and February 27 at JHCC. Jojo Girard, former morning show host (1994-2012) and one of the founders of the radiothon, joined Mix 106.5 to co-host the two-day fundraiser. Throughout the broadcast, current and former patients and families shared stories about their experiences and the treatment they received from JHCC. 

“From advanced medical equipment and research to the toys and books that ease a child’s stay, these donations provide vital support that insurance simply doesn’t cover. Every dollar stays local to fuel life-saving programs at JHCC,” said Tracy Brandys, Senior Vice President and Market Manager, Audacy Baltimore. “We’re so honored to partner with a wonderful organization that provides the best care to our community. Thank you to all our wonderful sponsors, listeners, and staff who helped us reach a record-breaking milestone this year.”

“The Children’s Center sees thousands of patients each year for a variety of reasons, from routine checkups to lifesaving procedures,” says David Hackam, M.D., Ph.D., Co-Director and Pediatric Surgeon-in-Chief, Johns Hopkins Children’s Center. “Every donation allows us to continue delivering world-class care to our pediatric patients, while also bringing a sense of healing and normalcy to our patients and their families when they need it the most.”
