The generosity of the Triangle is amazing, said Smelser. Once again, our community stepped up and delivered. The MIX 101.5 Radiothon for Duke Childrens Hospital reminds you of whats important in life. We are always amazed by the courage of families and patients when they share their stories. Life is about moments. The donations the Radiothon receives helps those patients have those future moments with their families. Its a beautiful thing to see. The money raised today truly creates those miracles for tomorrow.
Several special guests stopped by during the 2018 Radiothon, including Duke Mens Basketball Coach Mike Krzyzewski. He offered several exclusive incentives, including an access for two to a Duke Mens Basketball closed practice and an opportunity for a photo with Coach K as well as his autograph.

5-year-old Ridge helps thank listeners for donating to the 2018 MIX 101.5 Radiothon for Duke Children's Hospital. His mom said, Duke Childrens Hospital saved my sons life.
It was a powerful moment and were glad he took his personal time to visit us and share his story, said WRAL-FM Promotions Director Jason Newton.
He continued, This is my third Radiothon, and Im lucky to see firsthand what Duke Childrens does for the families. The stories I hear from the families are sometimes really hard to hear, and very emotional but the way they tell it always leaves me with a smile on my face.
The MIX 101.5 Radiothon is Duke Childrens largest single fundraising event each year. This signature event raises funds to benefit childrens programs and further support the continuation of excellence within the medical and surgical programs at Duke Childrens.
Im blessed with two healthy children, and no parent wants to hear that their kid is sick, but I have comfort knowing Duke Childrens is in our own backyard and they would get the best care in the country, said Newton.
MIX 101.5 has raised $18,148,667 for the kids at Duke Childrens over the past 23 years thanks to the compassion and caring of MIX 101.5 listeners, sponsors, patient families and hundreds of volunteers.
