SuperTalk Mississippi Media and Palmer Home to partner for annual Radiothon this Thursday

SuperTalk Mississippi Media is gearing up for the 12th annual Radiothon benefitting the Palmer Home for Children on Thursday, July 11.

Listeners across the region are invited to tune in to SuperTalk Mississippi on their radios or online from 6 a.m. to 6 p.m. to hear from individuals who have been directly impacted by Palmer Home’s mission, including children currently in care, alumni, staff, and supporters. Gripping interviews and heartwarming stories will be shared throughout The Gallo Show, MidDays with Gerard Gibert, Good Things with Rebecca Turner, and SportsTalk Mississippi.

“As a privately funded nonprofit, we rely on the dedicated support of partners like SuperTalk Mississippi in order to serve hundreds of children in need,” Drake Bassett, President & CEO of Palmer Home for Children, said. “Radiothon is not only our largest fundraising day of the year, but also raises critical awareness of our services across Mississippi and beyond. SuperTalk listeners have generously embraced the mission of Palmer Home, and we look forward to partnering again for the 12th straight year.”

In 2012, SuperTalk Mississippi declared Palmer Home for Children as the network’s charity of choice and established the annual Radiothon to support the needs of the organization. Since its inception, the annual event has raised nearly $2.8 million for the children at Palmer Home and has become Palmer Home’s largest one-day fundraiser. Last year’s event alone raised more than $367,000 for the Mississippi-based nonprofit.

“In the 12th year of this partnership, we are more excited than ever before to once again offer our platform to raise awareness for Palmer Home’s much needed mission,” Kim Dillon, President & CEO of SuperTalk Mississippi Media, said.

“Palmer Home does not rely on government funding for their operation, so events like our annual Radiothon really are critical in ensuring this organization continues to serve the vulnerable children and families in need within our state. Mississippi is often touted as the most generous state in our nation, and we are so humbled by the outpouring of love and support that we see each year from our fellow Mississippians as they tune in to the Radiothon, hearing the stories and testimonies of individuals that remind us of the true mission of Palmer Home. It truly is a respite for those in need and a special place where hope grows.”
