CHAMPAIGN -- A radio station is raising money with the help of a reindeer. Well, it's actually a mechanical bull outfitted with fake antlers and a red nose.

Mix 94.5's Kevin Lambert and Sarah Addison of the "Kevin and Sarah Morning Show" stepped up for a good cause. The radio hosts will be broadcasting live from Home Deport on Bloomington Road.

They each took turns riding the mechanical bull to raise money for the station's annual Christmas Wishes event. Every year, 10 - 15 lucky local families have their wishes granted.

The goal is $10,000. So far, the two have raised $3,000.

Donations can be made here.
