On Thursday, March 23, Rhode Island Hospital held its third annual Day of Giving telethon in partnership with NBC 10 WJAR. The event highlighted the world-renowned physicians and specialists from the Lifespan Cancer Institute, and their commitment to bringing the future of cancer care close to home

Throughout the day, viewers across the region tuned in to hear from grateful patients and hospital staff, who shared powerful and inspiring stories of courage and hope in the face of life-threatening cancer diagnoses.

Thanks to sponsorships and the generosity of dollar-for-dollar, matching-gift-challenge donors, a total of $370,000 was raised, with day-of proceeds benefiting The Malloy Strong Fund at Rhode Island Hospital, which provides general support including financial, physical, and emotional assistance for patients undergoing cancer treatment.
