Rewind 89.3’s 9th Annual Make-A-Wish Radiothon – In Memory of Cole Wittenberg 🩵💫
📅 Thursday, June 12, 2025
🕕 6 AM – 4 PM
📍 Live on-air & online at rewind893.ca
Join us for the 9th annual Rewind 89.3 Make-A-Wish Radiothon, held every year on the second Thursday of June — now officially recognized as Cole Wittenberg Day in the Municipality of the County of Kings.
At just 4½ years old, Cole Wittenberg was to be the honorary co-host of our very first Radiothon. He passed away shortly before that broadcast, but his joy, courage, and love continue to inspire everything we do. Cole was a proud Wish Kid whose dream of visiting Disney World came true, and he brought happiness to everyone he met — including all of us at Rewind 89.3. A true real-life Ninja Turtle superhero, Cole remains at the heart of this event. 🐢🌠
His family has generously volunteered at every Radiothon since, helping us raise funds — and hope — for other children in Nova Scotia awaiting their wishes. 🩵
💙 Tune in throughout the day to hear powerful stories, meet surprise in-studio guests, and learn how your support is making a real impact on local families.
🎉 Bring the kids from 2–4 PM for our special Kids’ Corner at the Rewind parking lot!
