There's a lot of cheering going on today at the Health Services Foundation of the South Shore. The final total from the Valentine's Day "Gift For the Heart" radiothon on CKBW and Hank-FM is in.
72-thousand and 70 dollars and 76 cents was raised during the 10 hour radiothon. Thats way more than was expected. The Foundation's Bernadette Jordan says money kept coming in even after the radiothon ended. This year's final is 21-thousand dollars more than what was raised last year. The money will go toward the purchase of a new Echo cardiac monitor.
