The month of June was perfect to support the Sheep River Health Trust (SRHT) Radiothon. 

With support from 12 Months of Giving, the annual Together We Make a Difference Radiothon was a smashing success, well exceeding the $60,000 goal.

Along with a $2,500 donation, Century 21 Foothills Real Estate also donated $20 per realtor, bringing in an extra $1,000 for the radiothon.

Darren Metcalfe says it's always been important to support.

"We are part of the Foothills, and we want to give back to the Foothills. The Sheep River Health Trust is one of our partners that we work with and donate to, and we're excited to do it."

At the end of the day, the total had grown to $67,374 -- significantly exceeding the $43,000 raised last year.

This was the eighth radiothon and SRHT executive director Andrea Mitchell was pleased with how things went.

"Every year we think, 'Is this the right event for us? Is the community going to come down? Are they going to put money in those boxes?' But especially after COVID last year, as we're starting to get back to normal, I think this is a really important day. It shows that the community is willing to participate and support great health care in our region."

The 12 Months of Giving campaign is entirely the generous work of Blair and Bev Gordon of Century 21 Foothills Real Estate.
