The Dr. Noble Irwin Regional Healthcare Foundation is getting ready for its annual Pharmasave Radiothon for Healthcare, and this year it will be broadcast live on all Golden West stations in Swift Current, including Magic 97!

This year, the funds raised in the Radiothon will go toward purchasing a new digital portable x-ray machine for Cypress Regional Hospital, to allow for bedside x-rays of patients unable to be transported to the main x-ray suite, including critically ill patients and those that suffered severe trauma injuries. You can actually help the foundation toward that goal starting this morning by filling up at Pioneer Co-op, with two cents from every litre of gas sold at the Wheatland Mall and Southside locations being donated toward purchasing the new x-ray machine.

Sean Finell from the Dr. Noble Irwin Foundation joined Colin on the Magic Morning Show to talk about it.

The Pharmasave Radiothon for Healthcare will be broadcast live from Cypress Regional Hospital November 1 & 2 on Magic 97.
