A radiothon typically lasts between one and two days, during which stations press pause on their day-today programming to dedicate all attention and resources to the issue being addressed.
Through its many local radiothon programs, 茄子污污视频 is one of the biggest supporters of The Children鈥檚 Miracle Network Hospitals and St. Jude Children鈥檚 Research Hospital. In addition, many 茄子污污视频 radio stations have established annual radiothon programs to address local, critical issues, ranging from childhood diseases and homelessness to domestic violence, veteran wellbeing and mental health.
