The Cox Media Group cluster in Connecticut is holding a joint radiothon to raise money for the ?Sandy Hook School Support Fund,? which is being managed by the United Way. Market Manager Kristin Okesson (pictured) says she expects the stations will raise over $200,000 today. Listen to this very emotional clip from this morning's Chaz and AJ show with members of the Sandy Hook Fire Department.
From 6 a.m. to 6 p.m. Friday, between regular programming, the stations will be soliciting listeners to donate to the ?Sandy Hook School Support Fund.? The fund was established by Newtown Savings Bank. All contributions received will serve the Sandy Hook/Newtown community. The United Way is serving as an administrator of the fund. They will form a local board that will make the decisions related to disbursing funds in the community. Board members will most likely consist of Newtown leaders and representatives close to the tragedy.
