830 WCCO‘s 21st annual “Hunger Mission Radiothon” in Minneapolis helped Audacy raise over $367,000 to provide meals and care for those in need. The annual event has raised over $4.3 million for Union Gospel Mission Twin Cities since 2003.
“We are simply in awe of the incredible generosity of our fans! This is yet another great example of how live and local radio can truly impact lives,” WCCO Brand Manager Brad Lane said.
“We’re so proud of our team for helping share these transformative stories from the inspiring work being done at Union Gospel Mission.”
830 WCCO’s 21st annual “Hunger Mission Radiothon” is a testament to Audacy’s unwavering dedication to making a positive impact on a large scale.
Audacy leverages its extensive reach and personal connection with listeners to drive initiatives that foster robust mental health and create strong communities.
“This has been a fantastic day where the community has truly come together and shown their heart,” Union Gospel Mission CEO Pam Axberg said. “So many generous donors tuned in and donated so we can address the needs of their neighbors experiencing homelessness, hunger and addiction.
“We are deeply grateful for the donors who make it possible for us to do this important work and for the opportunity to share our story more broadly.”
