Saga's WSNY-FM (Sunny 95) in Columbus, OH, in partnership with Nationwide Children's Hospital and the Children's Miracle Network, raised $91,252 during its annual Sunny 95 Radiothon to benefit children and families receiving care at the hospital.

The two-day event, hosted by the station's morning show team Randi & Rice In The Morning, featured emotional stories from patients, families, and hospital staff that inspired listeners to donate.

"Nationwide Children's Hospital isn't just a world-class medical facility-it's a beacon of hope for families here in Columbus and across the globe," said Todd Markiewicz, President & General Manager of Sunny 95. "We're honored to use our platform to help support the incredible doctors, nurses, and staff who dedicate their lives to helping kids heal and thrive."

Support came from hundreds of Sunny 95 listeners and local businesses who became "Miracle Makers," pledging donations to ensure all children receive care regardless of their family's ability to pay. Eco Plumbers, Electricians & HVAC Technicians contributed a standout $5,000 donation, continuing their tradition of community support.

Nationwide Children's Hospital, one of the nation's top pediatric medical centers, is on track to become the largest children's hospital in the world, drawing families from around the globe for its renowned care and expertise.
