"XYZ with Erik Zachary" hosts Erik Zachary and Jordan Foster joined the annual WCVQ-FM (Q108) Radiothon "Q-Up the Classroom" for the second consecutive year, helping raise $36,000 for local students in Clarksville-Montgomery County. The funds will benefit the Education Foundation's efforts to provide school supplies to area children ahead of the new school year.

The event, hosted by XYZ affiliate Q108, once again drew strong community support and highlighted the ongoing partnership between the nationally syndicated show and local stations.

"To have Erik and Jordan join us again this year meant so much to us and our community," said Ryan Ploeckelman, Operations Manager of 5 Star Media Group. "Their involvement, including a generous donation, shows how dedicated they are to the stations and communities they serve."

"It was truly our pleasure to be back in Clarksville for such a great cause," said Erik Zachary. "A special thanks to the Clarksville High School cheer team for making my dream of seeing Jordan thrown into the air come true!"

Skyview Networks, the show's syndication partner, also praised the duo's commitment. "Erik and Jordan have always showcased incredible support for their affiliates," said Ed Moloney, Director of Affiliate Syndication. "Their dedication both on and off the air makes a real difference."
