August Wallace Extending A Helping Hand

CUMULUS MEDIA Urban AC WDZZ (Z92.7)/FLINT, MI PD AUGUST WALLACE found a way to help her listeners get through the holidays beyond just accepting donations. WDZZ  teamed with cluster sister stations Country  WFBE (B95) and Top 40 WWCK (CK105.5) for “The Food For Families Giveaway.” 

Their efforts were aided by The Food Bank, The Flint Housing Commission and Catholic Charities.  They plan to distribute over 1,800 pounds of food throughout the community. “The initial turnout was overwhelming.  At least 600 people lined up for food,” said AUGUST. “Maybe our event will encourage other organizations to get involved in the community because this is evidence that people need our help. “
