For the second year in a row, KILT-FM (100.3 The Bull) in Houston hosted "10,000 for the Troops," supported by Kroger, to salute and thank as many service members as possible. On June 14, The Bull kicked the initiative off with an initial goal to collect 10,000 thank you cards for our heroes at home and globally. As of the final count on June 29, the station has amassed over 60,000 thank you cards from local community members.

"We are incredibly humbled and grateful to announce the overwhelming success of our '10,000 for the Troops' campaign for the second consecutive year," said Audacy Houston Senior Vice President and Market Manager Sarah Frazier. "The outpouring of support from our local community has been extraordinary. This campaign aims to demonstrate our gratitude for those who selflessly serve our nation. The sheer number of thank you cards collected is a testament to our immense respect and admiration for our military personnel and the power of local radio to connect and bring together our community for a common cause."
