KISS Country Cares Radiothon Raises More Than $344,000 for Joe DiMaggio Children’s Hospital Foundation

KISS Country Cares Radiothon

The 22nd annual KISS Country Cares Radiothon delivered a powerful show of community generosity, raising more than $344,000 for the Joe DiMaggio Children’s Hospital Foundation. Presented by Anidjar & Levine Accident Attorneys, the two-day event united listeners, sponsors, and partners across South Florida in support of pediatric care and family services.

Funds raised will support specialized medical programs, patient and family initiatives, and the hospital’s broader mission to deliver compassionate, high-quality care to children throughout the region. Contributions poured in both on air and online, underscoring the Radiothon’s enduring role as one of South Florida’s most impactful philanthropic broadcasts.

The event featured appearances by South Florida sports icon Jeff Conine, Miami Marlins player Griffin Conine, and WWE star and actor Roman Reigns, whose participation helped energize donors and amplify the cause.

“We are deeply grateful for the incredible generosity shown during this year’s KISS Cares Radiothon,” said Kelley Morris, president of Joe DiMaggio Children’s Hospital and Memorial Foundations. “Every dollar raised goes directly toward supporting the children and families who depend on Joe DiMaggio Children’s Hospital. The unwavering commitment of our donors, sponsors, and the KISS Country team is a powerful reminder of what a united community can achieve.”

Part of Memorial Healthcare System, Joe DiMaggio Children’s Hospital is a nationally recognized pediatric facility and Level I trauma center. Located in Hollywood, the hospital recently completed a major expansion, adding advanced cardiac care, an intraoperative MRI, inpatient rehabilitation spaces, and expanded family support areas—further strengthening South Florida’s pediatric healthcare infrastructure.
