One million dollars, two days to do it, and I know Hawaiʻi, you can do this.
[Hosts dance on stage. Volunteers cheer at the phone bank with a turtle mascot.]
MICHAEL W. PERRY, KSSK Radio Personality: This has been a fast 20 years, I've got to tell you, and
we built on it every year. And the things that they've been able to do with the money that we give
the people of Hawaiʻi is so spectacular and so touching.
[Phone volunteers take pledges. A girl hugs a woman.]
JILLIAN TAMARU, Senior Catering Sales Executive, Kyo-ya Hotels and Resorts: We here at Kyo-ya love
to give back to our community. We have everybody coming together just to raise more funds for the

HAYLEY BORGES, Hawaiʻi's 2026 Children's Miracle Network Champion Family: I think being a part of
the 20th annual Radiothon in itself is so special, you know. We are so lucky because this year,
especially as they build the new cancer ward, it really hits home for us. We uniquely benefited from
all things that Children's Miracle Network helped provide for. It's so exciting for us to be here.
[UHA Health Insurance presents a $10,000 check supporting the Sex Abuse Treatment Center and

SATC. It's statewide.

for the Kapiʻolani Radiothon for Kids, and the best thing of all is the money goes nowhere else but
here!
LEILA-ROSE COLOMA, Hawaiʻi's 2024 Children's Miracle Network Champion: They should donate because
Kapiʻolani helped me get out of the hospital and make me feel better, and it's just amazing how
everybody donates to Kapiʻolani.

CHAD RITCHIE, President & CEO, Matanuska Valley Federal Credit Union: You see how the donations
impact through the Miracle Mile, through the wall that you're seeing with the pictures and the
construction that they're doing, and just the area where the kids can go and they can have a space.
It feels amazing to be able to know that you're in some way able to contribute to help with that.
Who doesn't want to be part of that?

battles that we all did.

born here. Yeah, so it's near and dear to my heart. If everybody does a little, nobody's got to do a
lot, right?
WOMAN: Yes, amen, amen.
