Join the Akron-Canton Regional Foodbank as they partner with 98.1 WKDD, My 101.7, Rock 106.9, 640 WHLO and 99.7 Canton’s New Country for Long Haul Against Hunger on Friday, December 12, 2014.

See holiday giving in action! During Long Haul Against Hunger, those wanting to show their support of the Foodbank are encouraged to drive by and donate at any of the three locations. Volunteers will be on hand to accept monetary donations and to unload nonperishable food donations from vehicles.

Because of support from the 415 Group and The Goodyear Tire & Rubber Company, financial donations made throughout the day will be matched. Every $1 donated = 8 meals during Long Haul Against Hunger.
