A radiothon held by two Milwaukee radio stations raised more than $40,000 for victims of severe weather and flooding around Wisconsin.
WTMJ-AM and WKTI-FM held a fundraiser titled “Wisconsin Strong – Storm Relief” on Aug. 31.
“All money raised goes directly to storm and flood relief around the state of Wisconsin, and will support victims with shelter, food, and clean-up kits,” said Eric Brooks, WTMJ Director of Programming and News.
The money was raised for the American Red Cross during the three-hour telethon.
