Winter Warm-Up Request-A-Thon
94.5 3WS is partnering with the Dollar Energy Fund to help families in the Pittsburgh region stay warm this winter with the Winter Warm-Up Request-A-Thon. Listen to 94.5 3WS on November 11th and 12th, for your chance to have your song request played on the radio. Simply make a donation to Dollar Energy Fund during the event, tell us your song request, and listen to 94.5 3WS!
You can make a request now by donating online at dollarenergy.org. We’ll make every effort to play your request, but higher donation amounts will increase your chances of hearing your song in its entirety. The minimum suggested donation for a song request is $50.
