Every year, 104.1 WIKY sets out with a simple goal. Collect one ton of frozen turkeys for the Tri State Food Bank, so as many folks as possible in our area can have a great Thanksgiving dinner. And thanks to the generosity of WIKY listeners, and a $10,000 donation match from LyondellBasell, that goal was blown out of the water this year. A total of 5.86 tons of turkeys were donated, as well as an additional 2 tons of other food items, to bring the total poundage raised for “Ton of Turkeys” to 7.8 tons of food.
We also want to give a special “thank you” to Robert John & Associates, for once again being our partner for the Ton of Turkeys drive.
Glen Roberts from The Tri State Food Bank was on with The WIKY Morning Show to make the announcement.
