I'm Stuffed!

iHEARTMEDIA HARTFORD and NEW HAVEN VP/Marketing VANESSA WOJTUSIAK said, "Food insecurity throughout the COVID-19 pandemic is emphasized more during the holiday season. We're thankful for the incredible generosity from the CONNECTICUT community to kick off this holiday season and continue the annual tradition of the food drive working alongside an incredible organization, CONNECTICUT FOOD BANK."

For the past 30 years, "KC101 Stuff-A-Bus" has raised tens of thousands of turkeys and tens of thousands of dollars in funds and in pounds of nonperishable foods to benefit the CONNECTICUT community in need.

CONNECTICUT FOOD BANK spokesperson PAUL SHIPMAN said, "The generosity of our neighbors is impressive, and we are grateful to iHEARTMEDIA’s KC101 listeners for answering the call once again to give. This partnership over 30 years has helped countless families enjoy a holiday free from worry about putting food on the table."
