    Way to go guys! Your station just never stops helping our community.

    This is AMAZING! I am so impressed with the response to your “Vote for Y107″ campaign and it’s too bad that the Milwaukee station has to think we cheated to win. It just shows who deserves it more! WAY TO GO!!!


  4. Julie

    It’s not about the city or the station. It’s about the kids, and Milwaukee wants their kids to win. that’s all.


  5. Julie

    And congrats to your mayor for stepping up!

    DAWN & TIM SAY HELLO AND WE ARE SO EXCITED THAT COLUMBIA IS IN FIRST PLACE. WE KNOW FIRST HAND HOW WONDERFUL THE DOCTORS,NURSES AND EVERYONE IS AT THE CHILDREN’S HOSPITAL OF COLUMBIA.


  7. Shannon & Rob Smith

    Thanks for doing this guys. That children’s hospital saved our son’s life and continued treating him for over 3 years. God bless you for what you have done and will continue to do for this community.

    My kids and I wish you guys the best of luck, no one deserves it more. No one works harder to support our kids like you. University does so much, two of my kids have been patients there and they did their best to make sure my kids were taken care of. Thank you for helping them.

    Im so happy were able to do this for the kids! I’ve used facebook to tell everyone about the voting and asked teachers to talk about it in classrooms – also I called yesterday morning to get you guys to come to Rock Bridge and then talked to my principle — I don’t think she didnt anything about it but whatever she’s retiring after four years at our school?!?! so whatever – were still number one && a handfull of voets ahead of the rest! =] I listen to Y107 in the morning as I get ready for class and some of the stories are so touching I cry — which makes me kinda mad cause then i have to redo my make up… but no one deserves this win more. Every kid should have a chance to survive but Y107 is so giving and its time they get some help… Thank you everyone for voting && of course… thank you Children’s Miracle Network.

  12. Kyla

    good job!…we need things like this to be done all the time….


  13. Kyla

    great!

    We don’t think ou cheated at all. We just wanted to get the $50K for our Children’s hospital. We’re actually very much in awe of what your community is doing for Y107 & the kids there.
    Congrats!!!

    I think this is awesome that they are trying so hard to earn the $50K for the Children’s Hospital. The date is kind of ironic because my daughter was diagnosed and began treatment for her leukemia 9 years ago on Feb. 1st at University Children’s Hospital. I hope we win because there are lots of children who benefit not just from their medical skills, but also their personal and humanitarian skills to help patients & entire families cope with life changing illnesses. Good Luck !

    Greetings from the frozen north! I just saw the totals, and while I am a klh fan, I must applaud you in your efforts to be North America’s Most Caring Radio Station. Dave and Carole here in Wisconsin have done some wonderful work with our Children’s Hospital, and it appears that you all do as well. Once again, Milwaukee and Columbia are prime examples of how kind, caring, and giving the mid west is. Outstanding work!


  17. MISTY

    I am proud to be part of this community and how everyone has ralleyed together for a cause that is so important. It is great to know we are still a community with compassion and selflessness. Heres to you Cosmo and JC for delightefully shoving this down our throats. With out your efforts and your sister stations efforts we surley would not have had a large response. Thank you columbia and Cosmo and JC for your thoughts and kindness. GOOD LUCK!!!!


  18. Simon

    I think we just won!! Well done Mid-MO!


  19. Donnna

    Well done!


  20. Kevin

    Congrats!!!!!!!! We can not thank the Doctors ,nurses, pilots, and emt’s for all they did for our son. This is a very deserving Hospital.


  21. Marlissa

    If this does not make an advertiser a believer in the power of radio, nothing will. Look what one radio station and all their listeners can do.


  22. pee soop

    you manipulated the rules…nice positive example…show me state…


  23. Amy from SmallTown Missouri

    There’s always going to be people who try & undermine all the positive things people do… it’s sad, but they’re the ones who have to look at themselves in the mirror every morning!! Good job guys & thanks to all the voters!! The kids are so blessed to have you all!!!


  24. Mae

    Thank you all so much for participating in this event!! We have been voting like crazy every day! My 9 month old son Keegan has cancer and the University of Missouri Children’s hospital has been WONDERFUL to us and our son. We couldn’t have asked for a better hospital. Your station is awesome!


  25. Stalaro9

    When will some people learn??? It’s not about the competition or who wins, it’s about helping those who need help. Cosmo and JC prove this time and time again. God bless you both for showing us all how to be better people!!!


  26. Donna Lester

    Did we win??? The last time I heard we were 85,000 votes ahead and that was around 10 p.m. on Friday night.
    I have a poster regarding the contest, that was placed at Columbia Regional Hospital, to give to Cosmo and JC. I work there.
    Regional will become Childrens Hospital with the first phase opening in either August or Sept of this year. Thanks, so very much, for the effort to gain the funding!!!


  27. M

    Just goes to show how great Missouri is and how everyone pulls together! (And no, we didn’t manipulate the rules or cheat, remember we are just a bunch a hicks- we is not smarts enouf to figur out how to do that!)


  28. Jaime

    What were the final results???? Nothing posted on MU’s website, nothing on Y107 or Children’s Miracle Network!!!!


  29. Michael

    The press release is out y107 won http://www.childrensmiraclenetwork.org/PressReleasesDetail.aspx?id=151&releaseid=56

    I think it is great that we as a state have won this money for our hospital. That is just a sign of a poor looser. We manipulated nothing. We simple took the “show me” attitude and boy did we ever show them. Great job Mid Missouri and Y107!!!


  31. HANNAH
