Now is the time to break the stigma about talking about mental health. TALK SAVES LIVES.

94.3 The Shark presents the 3rd annual Hope Rocks radio-thon, Saturday, November 12, 2022, from 2pm until 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, Program Director & Afternoon Host of 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 leading up to the one-day radio-thon broadcast. The broadcast will be filled with celebrity guest interviews, on-air donation pledges, and other special features. Hope Rocks also includes an online auction featuring high value items and experiences, live now at 943TheShark.com/hoperocks through November 12th.

“Music has gotten me through some dark times,” said Orlando, Morning Show host for 94.3 The Shark. “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.”
