97.9 WRMF's KVJ Show Unveils ''Captain Crust''

Captain Crust and Princess Pepperoni

Jason Pennington and Virginia Sinicki of 97.9 WRMF West Palm Beach's KVJ Show have turned their on-air camaraderie into a community give-back, creating a superhero duo -- Captain Crust and Princess Pepperoni -- and launching a grassroots initiative called "The Power of Pizza."

The campaign aims to surprise members of "The KVJ Nation" with free pizza deliveries designed to lift spirits and spread goodwill. "Anything is possible through the power of pizza," Captain Crust quips.

Earlier this week, the duo delivered stacks of pizzas to The Learning Center School in Royal Palm Beach, a public charter school serving students on the autism spectrum. The visit turned into a celebration, with students greeting the heroes with hugs and staging a mini concert during lunch.

Beyond schools, Captain Crust and Princess Pepperoni have also delivered pizza to several local children's hospitals and two area shelters for abused women, extending the effort across South Florida.

A short video from one of their appearances is available on YouTube, showcasing the lighthearted costumes and the smiles the campaign is generating as it rolls through the community. Watch it here.
