Entercom has raised $303,507 to aid the Loma Linda University Children's Hospital in Loma Linda, CA during Country KFRG-FM and KXFG-FM (K-FROG)/Riverside's 19th annual "Stater Bros. Charities K-FROGGERS 4 Kids Radiothon." Proceeds from the event continue to grow via online donations and all contributions will benefit pediatric cancer patients.

"Year after year, our listeners step up to help the kids and families at Loma Linda University Children's Hospital," said Entercom Riverside Senior VP/Market Manager Michael Valenzuela. "I am proud of our station's efforts to work with the hospital to fight against pediatric cancer in our community. Both my son and K-FROG's on-air host Heather's daughter have been treated at Loma Linda University Children's Hospital and it is an honor to be able to give back to an institution that means so much to our families."

"Stater Bros. Charities K-FROGGERS 4 Kids Radiothon" was broadcast live from Bass Pro Shops in Rancho Cucamonga, CA on Wednesday, December 4. Listeners donated through the station's phone bank and website. The 15-hour radiothon featured testimonies from current patients and families impacted by cancer, as well as messages from K-FROG on-air hosts David Bugenske, Ginny Harman, Heather Froglear, Anthony Donatelli, Vicki Pepper and Dana Swearingen.

Over the past 19 years, K-FROG has raised $6.7 million in partnership with Stater Bros. Charities for Loma Linda University Children's Hospital with the funds being used for improvements to rooms, including beds, televisions, sleeper chairs for parents and more.
