WFNC Collects Almost 16,000 Pounds of Food

WFNC-AM (News Talk 640)'s "Good Morning Fayetteville With Goldy" collected a total of 15,780 pounds of non-perishable food items for Fayetteville, NC's Second Harvest Food Bank through a successful food drive and live broadcast on Saturday, May 13. The morning show was broadcast live from the Food Lion grocery store on Raeford Road in Fayetteville. The campaign was held in conjunction with the USPS Letter Carriers' Stamp Out Hunger Food Drive.

"Good Morning Fayetteville With Goldy" on-air host Jeff "Goldy" Goldberg welcomed to the show guests from the U.S. Postal Service and the Second Harvest Food Bank, as well as local politicians joined Good Morning Fayetteville throughout the week and on location to help bring attention and support to the fight against food insecurity in Cumberland County.

Goldberg said, "In a county where one out of every four children is food insecure and with the school year ending soon, it was more important than ever to make sure Second Harvest Food Bank was stocked up. Thanks to all our wonderful listeners for showing up and donating almost 16,000 pounds of food!"

WFNC-AM already has plans in place for a Fall radiothon and food drive at a different location to be announced.
