At Hot 91.9FM, community is at the heart of everything we do and it’s through Hot Cares that we’re able to meaningfully touch the lives of hundreds individuals in need. It has become our birthday tradition, to host a 12-hour telethon fundraiser, which we like to call our Teddy-thon, that garners the much-needed funding for all of our Hot Cares initiatives. In 2017 just over R1 million was pledged and in 2018 the bar was raised with the target of R1.5 million and we were delighted when we exceeded our target and received over R2.1 million in pledges. In 2019, we are proud to continue this tradition because we know and we’ve experienced first-hand that giving back is the greatest gift of all. We will be celebrating our 5th birthday with our Teddy-thon target set at R2 million. Come Friday 15th November, it’s all hands-on deck from 6 AM to 6:30 PM with non-stop fundraising planned at the Centre Court in Sandton City. Manned by some of Joburg’s best known celebrities, corporates and Hot 91.9 FM presenters, the phone lines will be a conduit for our loyal listeners, friends and partners to help us to continue making a difference in the lives of those around us. And, being Joburg’s Best Old Skool and R&B station, we’ve made sure that the entertainment is as awesome as the Teddy-thon initiative, with top local talent performing during the day.WHY DO WE DO THIS?
