Audacy's KQKS (KS107.5)/Denver collected and distributed over 500 pairs of kid's sneakers in partnership with Soles4Souls and the Denver Dream Center in KS107.5's inaugural "Beats and Sneaks," a summer-long collection drive, running June 19 through August 12, in partnership with The Sharpest Rides and Culture Street. The campaign culminated with a distribution event at the Aztlan Recreation Center, where over 500 kids received a new pair of sneakers.
"This is the connection between radio and community engagement... getting out and connecting with our listeners and showing them that we care about our community," said Audacy Regional Vice President of Rhythmic and KQKS Brand Manager DJ Buck.
