What an extraordinary day of generosity, kindness, and community spirit! 💜

The HOT 102.7FM Teddython 2025, broadcast live from Papacinos Broadacres, raised an astonishing R31 503 925,00 in just 12 hours — all in support of Hot Cares. Listeners, businesses, and sponsors came together to make this the biggest Teddython in history, proving once again that Joburg’s heart for giving knows no bounds.

Every rand pledged will go towards changing lives through Hot Cares’ four pillars of impact: Humanitarian & Welfare, Healthcare & Medical, Education, and Animal Welfare.

🎥 All 12 hours of the Teddython were live streamed – click below to witness the many generous donors (and some Hot Cares recipients) who came to visit our outside broadcast at Papachinos…

As the pledges roll in, the atmosphere at Papacinos is electric – with listeners, sponsors, and community partners uniting to make a tangible difference. Throughout the day, we’ll be updating this page with live photos, videos, and special moments from the broadcast, so you can experience the magic wherever you are.

If you are an individual or business who missed out on donating to Teddython, you can still contribute via the Teddython website. Every rand raised helps us say “yes” to more stories of hope.
