A record-smashing Pay 4 Play

Thanks to YOU, the people, the 11th annual People’s Pay 4 Play on WQXA-FM 105.7 The X on Nov. 9 & 10 raised a record-breaking $241,363.30 for Children’s Miracle Network at Penn State Children’s Hospital. That brings the event’s 11-year fundraising tally to $1,455,883.

We would like to thank the thousands of individuals and businesses that supported this event. Whether you texted a $10 gift, gave $50 to hear your favorite song, paid $295 for a Michele Livingston reading, rallied your co-workers to purchase a $500 song, sponsored a Miracle Match, organized an event during the year, shared your story or volunteered, please know, that we are incredibly grateful for your support.

And hats off to Jen Shade, Earl David Reed, Nispey and the entire team at 105.7 the X for their incredible stamina and dedication to helping our kids. It’s no wonder these three were named “National Radio Person of the Year” by Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals.

Your gift to #Pay4PlayXI will support life-saving equipment, life-changing programs and transformative research at Penn State Children’s Hospital to give kids the #GiftofGrowingUp. Take a hospital video tour of your dollars at work.

There are lots of photos on our Facebook page, but here are a few favorites.
