El Zol Breaks National Fundraising Record for Spanish Radiothons

The El Zol 107.9 team presents the check for $858,794 to Children's National. El Zol is now the largest Spanish radiothon in the country. El Zol’s seventh annual radiothon raised a record-breaking $858,794 for Children’s National, a 37 percent increase from last year’s event. The El Zol Radiothon officially broke the record for most raised at a Children’s National radiothon, and the station now holds the title of the largest Spanish radiothon in the country. The three-day event took place Dec. 4-6 at the main atrium of the hospital, where several patients, families, doctors, and nurses participated in a day filled with inspirational stories. “We are so proud to partner with the entire El Zol 107.9 family and are grateful for their contribution to ensure that Children’s National can provide the same level of care to all children in our community,” said Megan Summerford, assistant director for Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals at Children's National. “We look forward to more success in 2015 as El Zol continues on its goal to a $1 million radiothon for the kids.”
