Together we raised an INCREDIBLE total for Cash for Kids Day 2023!

Find out how much you helped us raise yesterday 👏

Cash for Kids Day, in partnership with Ulster Bank, saw Cool FM and Downtown Radio flip the music and have listeners choose what to play all day long!

Highlights include country on Cool FM and the return of Christmas on Downtown in April 🤣

The reason behind the madness was for everyone across Northern Ireland to join together to help vulnerable families who really need us right now.

Imagine waking up not knowing what you're going to feed your kids today, or will the electric/water meter stretch over the weekend.

That’s real life for so many, so we wanted to help. And your response has been phenomenal!

All funds raised yesterday will be now distributed to families across Northern Ireland.

Whether you’ve danced, raved, baked, or made a donation towards Cash for Kids Day THANK YOU!

Seriously – THANK YOU – it makes such a difference. Our grand total raised today for Cash for Kids Day 2023 is...

Clare McGimpsey, Charity Manager for Cash for Kids NI shared: "What a day it has been, our incredible listeners have done it again. They've blown us away and they have raised an absolute fortune!

"Thank you so much if you donated, if you arranged a fundraising event, if you spoke to us as one of our beneficiaries, it's just incredible what we've all done together."

We said that together we could make great things happen – and thanks to you we really have.

Stay tuned for our Cool FM Colour Dash taking place at Stormont Estate next month, if you’d like to support the runners, please visit coolfm.co.uk/colourdash
