Starting at 9:00 pm on Saturday March 3rd, until 5:00 pm on Sunday March 4th; the Kinsmen Telemiracle Telethon will once again be raising funds, and collecting donations to “Help People Everyday.” The Kinsmen Foundation provides special needs equipment and access to medical assistance for Saskatchewan residents, groups, and health foundations to improve quality of life and independence. The funds raised through the annual Telemiracle Telethon make it possible to follow through on this commitment.
This year, Telemiracle will be held live at the Conexus Arts Centre in Regina and will feature talented performers from across the province, including country music star Codie Prevost. Prevost was nominated for the “Rising Star Award” at the 2011 Canadian Country Music Awards and is honoured to join the line up at Telemiracle which also includes Honeymoon Suite, Beverley Mahood, and Victoria Banks. Prevost says “Over the years I’ve seen a lot of great things that Telemiracle has done for people across our province. As a Saskatchewan resident/artist I’m excited to be a part of the national cast for the first time. Being able to contribute and give back to my home province through music is an honour”.
Anyone interested in donating to Telemiracle can; make a direct donation through a phone call during the telethon, mail in a cheque, or visit the website to donate on line. The Kinsmen Foundation also encourages residents of Saskatchewan to take part in fundraising initiatives throughout the year. Without the generous support of Telethon viewers it would be impossible to provide daily support to those who need it most.
