Auckland’s Bollywood FM Station set for “55 hour - Christmas for kids Radiothon"
A team of Radio Jockeys from Humm 106.2 FM, Auckland’s only Hindi FM Radio Station – is going for a record 55 Hour Radiothon broadcast to bring joy to kids less fortunate this Christmas.
Breakfast Show Host, Vijay and Drive Show Hosts Dev and Sandy will be On-Air for 55 hours nonstop, without any sleep from 6am Thursday 15th December to 1pm Saturday 17th December.
During this period, listeners are invited to drop by at any time at Humm FM station, 16 Taylors Road Morningside with gifts for the less fortunate kids.
Humm FM started the trend of Christmas for Kids Radiothon last year which lasted for 54 hours and hundreds of listeners walked through Humm FM doors to donate gifts and nearly 2000 gifts were collected and donated to the Auckland City Mission.
This year, the three radio Jockeys taking the pledge, Vijay, Sandy and Dev decided to go an extra hour making the Radiothon 55 Hour long.
Humm FM believes Christmas is a time of giving and sharing and as a radio station we are providing a platform for listeners to come forward and become a Santa for the little kid out there who would have gone without the magic of Christmas otherwise.
Humm FM has partnered with the Salvation Army and all the gifts collected will be donated to kids who are less fortunate.
Humm FM hopes, those who donated gifts last year will come again this year and encourage others to join the good cause making 55 Hour Christmas for Kids Radiothon even more successful than last year.

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.
Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.
Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?
Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
