Over $28,000.00 raised by Evanov Winnipeg Radio Stations in support of Harvest Manitoba

Raising awareness and donations to help combat food

insecurity, local radio stations ENERGY 106, HOT 100.5, and 92.7 FM CKJS teamed up with Harvest Manitoba

for the annual “Hope for the Holidays” Radiothon.

The Radiothon was broadcast live from Garden City Shopping Centre on Friday, December 12, from 6 a.m. to 6

p.m. ENERGY 106’s Wheeler in the Morning (Dave Wheeler, Tyler Carr) along with HOT 100.5’s Mark & Dilly in

the Morning (Mark Morris, Sean Dilworth) were on the air for twelve hours of music, prizes, auctions, and

valuable information on how to donate to Harvest Manitoba. 92.7-FM CKJS Good Morning Philippines (Chester

Pangan, Donna Natividad-Arenas), Radio Dhamaal (Prachi Saini) and Afternoon Pasada (Lucille Nolasco-

Garrido) also supported the Radiothon throughout the day. Over $28,000 in food and cash were raised for the

day, with donations still coming in.

Adam West, Operations Manager, Evanov’s Winnipeg stations cluster added: “This year, the need is still

urgent—and once again, Manitobans proved what we already know: when our community is asked to help, they

show up in a big way. I’m incredibly proud of our on-air, promotions, and behind-the-scenes teams who poured

everything into this 12-hour radiothon for Harvest Manitoba. And the giving doesn’t stop when we sign off—

donations typically continue through the holiday stretch, so if you haven’t had a chance yet, please consider

contributing today at harvestmanitoba.ca.”
