Ocean of Love is an Ocean County-based organization that assists local children with cancer and their families. Caring for a sick child is an unbelievable financial burden and all of the money raised goes straight to the financial support of these families. From hospital bills and gas money to support for bereavement groups, Ocean of Love is there through the entire process. The 105.7 The Hawk Ocean of Love Billboard Radiothon is an annual event that puts 105.7 The Hawk's Andy Chase on top of a billboard until the goal of reaching $105,700 is met. In addition to helping to raise money during this single event, Andy also raises awareness for the group year-round. The annual Ocean of Love Radiothon began in 1998 and has raised more than $1.7 million to date for Ocean County families.

Throwback Thursday- Drum Point Elementary Ocean of Love Pizza Party
Back in 2010, Drum Point Elementary was the school that donated the most money to Ocean of Love for the Billboard.
They won a pizza party! We delivered them loads of pizza! They loved it. We have pictures!!!! Check out Race and Mike Merrell back in 2010...
