The presenting sponsor for the 2019 Radiothon for Kids was D. Suehiro
Electric, Inc. This year marked the company’s third year participating. D.
Suehiro Electric employees set a shift record by raising $37,310 for Kapi‘olani
during their hour-and-a-half volunteer time on the phone bank. In addition, the
company donated two fully stocked room decorating and comfort carts that
will help celebrate the milestones and miracle moments patients experience.
The Radiothon is a trademark
event that brings the community
together. Kapi‘olani was honored to
have returning sponsors, such as D.
Suehiro Electric, HMSA, AlohaCare,
and welcome new community
partners like Zippy’s Restaurants.

"Our guests, employees
and their children have
all benefited from
Kapi‘olani, that's why
we feel this partnership
is so important. To
be at the Radiothon
for Kids amongst the
excitement, the noise
and all the phones
ringing, really shows us
how many people are
involved."
