Whitecap Resources Kicks of 2025 Radiothon For Life

Whitecap Resources has kicked off the St. Joseph’s Hospital Foundation Radiothon For Life Campaign with a major donation of $50,000. This donation will officially start off the fundraising initiatives of the foundation’s annual radiothon set to take place Wednesday, May 21, 2025 live on Sun 102 FM, Country 106 FM and CJ1150 AM.

The St. Joseph’s Hospital Foundation is very grateful for the generous donation. “We are incredibly thankful for the donation from Whitecap Resources for our 14th Annual Radiothon For Life campaign. Our radiothon will continue to support our MRI for Estevan fundraising campaign and with this donation we are off to a great start as we kick off Radiothon”, said Executive Director of St. Joseph’s Hospital Foundation, Lori Gervais.

This year’s Radiothon for Life will be back inside St. Joseph’s Hospital in the Rotunda outside of the Tom & Irma Cafeteria. “We love hosting the day right in the centre of the hospital. That allows us to also include the staff at St. Joseph’s Hospital as well as truly showing off where the funds that are raised go,” says Gervais.

Campaigns in support of the Radiothon For Life have already begun with Suds Zone Car Wash hosting their second annual Wash-A-Thon, along with A&W Estevan for a Teen Burger Tuesday campaign that will run every Tuesday from April 22 - May 20. Proceeds from all Teen Burgers sold at A&W Estevan on those dedicated days will support the Radiothon for Life campaign. Southern Plains Co-op is also signed up to support a community barbecue on Radiothon Day for both lunch and supper. Hotdogs and hamburgers will be available, all by donation at the St. Joseph’s Hospital cafeteria. 

“Our Radiothon for Life is a huge fundraiser for us and with the MRI goal nearing, we are looking forward to adding more funds to our MRI Project Campaign,” says Gervais.

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