In an effort to reduce the spread of COVID-19, the St. Joseph’s Hospital Foundation announced the postponement of their annual Radiothon for Life to a later date. The event was scheduled for April 29 live to be aired Golden West Broadcasting’s Estevan stations, taking place at St. Joseph’s Hospital.

“Many individuals, community groups, businesses, volunteers, radio staff and healthcare workers are involved each year. The Foundation does not want to put anyone at risk during this time,” said Breanne Van De Woestyne, executive director of the St. Joseph’s Hospital Foundation.

An announcement of the new date for the event will be shared once decided.

In the meantime, those who are interested are still able to make donations towards Radiothon and the Hospital Foundation online at www.sjhf.org, by mail or by calling the office at (306)637-2474.

The Radiothon For Life is an annual event hosted by St. Joseph’s Hospital Foundation that has raised thousands of dollars to support the funding of medical equipment at St. Joseph’s Hospital.
