Radio Charity Musicthon is a fund-raising campaign dedicated to increasing items to help the visually impaired be a part of society, such as audible traffic lights that allow visually impaired pedestrians to feel safe as they walk through town. The project started in 1975 and welcomes its 45th anniversary this year. It started as a radio-friendly project directed at helping the visually impaired. Today, it goes beyond donations by promoting understanding and awareness for showing compassion toward the physically disabled, in addition to the visually impaired.
