OMAHA, Neb. (KMTV) — The 16th annual Classic Rock 105.9 Radiothon for Make-a-Wish is here and it beat last year's fundraising goal by $50,000.

The 2021 fundraising total exceeded $150,000.

For the first year, KMTV was a co-sponsor. Also new this year: the drive to make wishes come true happened at Scheels at Village Pointe.

The Radiothon helps grant wishes for children in Nebraska with critical illnesses. It took place this year from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. on Friday.
