Hope Rocks For Suicide Prevention
• Connoisseur Media’s WWSK (94.3 The Shark)/Long Island proudly presents the 3rd annual Hope Rocks Radiothon, tomorrow, Nov. 12 from 2-6pm at The Studio at The Paramount in Huntington, NY. Hope Rocks is an award-winning campaign dedicated to raising funds and awareness for the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention/Long Island Chapter.
“There seem to be more rock artists who have battled with mental health issues than any other genre of musician,” said Rob Rush, PD/afternoon jock on 94.3 The Shark. “As Long Island’s leading rock station, we feel like it’s our responsibility to host this conversation, no matter how uncomfortable it may be.”
The 2022 Hope Rocks campaign is a series of fundraising events that lead into tomorrow’s one-day radiothon broadcast, which will feature celebrity guest interviews, on-air donation pledges, and other special features, including an online auction featuring high value items and experiences, live now at 943TheShark.com/hoperocks.
“Music has gotten me through some dark times,” said Shark morning host Orlando. “That’s why we have to have this conversation so we can share stories, feel a sense of camaraderie and community and help others heal and even learn the warning signs to help somebody in crisis.”
Be part of the conversation. Be part of the solution. Talk Saves Lives… and Hope Rocks! To learn more, schedule an on-air pledge or join our mission, contact Director of Marketing Alissa Marti at alissa.marti@connoisseurli.com or 631-770-4361.
