Audacy raised over $447,000 to benefit Second Harvest Heartland during "Let's Kick Hunger Day Radiothon" on WCCO-AM/Minneapolis. The amount raised during the 14th annual radiothon held on February 2 brought the overall fundraising total to over $3.5 million since 2009. The radiothon was conducted onsite at Second Harvest facility in Brooklyn Park, MN, live on February 2 from 6am-6pm CT. Station hosts spoke with members and clients of Second Harvest Heartland, current board members and other leaders in the community fighting against hunger.
"Year after year, our fans open up their hearts to those in need," said Audacy Minneapolis Senior Vice President and Market Manager Jeff Gonsales. "Lives are being impacted in significant ways, and we are incredibly grateful. WCCO's long-standing partnership with Second Harvest Heartland means so much to us and to so many people who are helped by this community effort."
"This community is great at showing up for one another, and today's 14th annual 'Let's Kick Hunger Day Radiothon' was no exception," added Second Harvest Heartland CEO Allison O'Toole. "It takes all of us to keep our neighbors fed and we're so grateful to WCCO listeners, radiothon callers and our sponsors from Compeer Financial, Land O' Lakes and Lindus Construction for going above and beyond to end hunger."
Second Harvest Heartland was created on October 1, 2001, when Second Harvest Great Minneapolis and Second Harvest St. Paul joined forces to bring together more than 44 years of combined history and experience to the fight against hunger. Second Harvest Heartland is among the nation's largest, most effective hunger-relief organizations.
