WRMF's KVJ Show to Help Relief Efforts in the Bahamas

WRMF/West Palm Beach's "The KVJ Show" is hosting a two-day radiothon to help the relief efforts in the Bahamas. To aid in the recovery effort, the show will broadcast from 6am ET on Wednesday, September 11 until 10am on Friday, September 13th. Donations will go directly to rebuilding West End, the oldest community on Grand Bahama, through a partnership with 501c3, Little Smiles.

Hurricane Dorian sat over the Bahamas for 48 hours as a Category 5 storm and only moved 100 miles in that time. To help them rebuild, the The KVJ Show is going stay on the air for 48 hours straight in an attempt to help Little Smiles raise $100,000 cash.

"When you live in the Caribbean, you are family, even if you're not in the same country. We both enjoy the beauty and devastation of our climate. What the Bahamas has gone through is unfathomable and unprecedented, but they will not go through it alone," said Kevin Rolston, host of the KVJ Show. The KVJ Show & Hubbard Radio will be with the Bahamas as they rebuild back to being even stronger than they were before."

Donations can be made by texting "KVJBahamas" to 44-321, online at littlesmiles.org/KVJBAHAMAS.
