Youngstown radio station K105/WQXK-FM was able to recently raise $145,986 for children’s cancer treatment and research through the station’s annual St. Jude Radiothon.

The station has held the event since 1990 and has raised a total of more than $4.5 million for St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital.

“Advancing children’s health is one of the most noble things a person can do,” said Bill Kelly, Vice President/Market Manager, Cumulus Youngstown. “I am so proud that K105 continues to help St Jude’s with that mission.”
