The  final fundraising number for 2015 was revealed this morning by plane to the cheers of those below.
 
92.7 MIX FM’s Give Me 5 for Kids has raised over 3.4 million dollars in 15 years for Sunshine Coast children’s health services. The startling figure of $312,586.18 for 2015 sets a new record for the appeal, and means an average of over ten thousand dollars was raised every day of the month for the charity.
 
All funds raised will go towards the growing Child Development Service for the Sunshine Coast’s hospital, essential equipment for the Nambour General Hospital’s Paediatric Unit, as well as the wellbeing and entertainment of young patients in the Children’s Ward at the Nambour General Hospital.
 
92.7 MIX FM’s Give Me 5 for Kids ran a total 43 events throughout the month, ranging from auctioned Live Broadcasts, an Art Auction, Jet Ski Day, Poker & Trivia Nights, Movie Screenings, Jessie’s Party and an Outside Broadcast with Caroline in a crane 46 metres high.
 
92.7 MIX FM’s Caroline Hutchinson says she is so proud of this year’s achievement, “The generosity of the Sunshine Coast blows us away every year. We felt the momentum from early on this month, so we knew it was going to be a big number. On behalf of every sick kid on the Sunshine Coast, and their mum and dad, thank you so much.”
