Interfaith Fundraiser Today

Clarke Broadcasting is kicking off its Cash Drive today in partnership with Interfaith Social Services.

Interfaith Director Cathie Peacock was Friday’s KVML “Newsmaker of the Day”.

Peacock says there is an overwhelming need for cash and coats this year. During a typical month, over 800 families come into the Interfaith office just to receive food.

Cash donations to Interfaith are encouraged in order to purchase much needed items.

Tune into Star 92.7 and Today’s Country 93.5 KKBN this morning to help. The on-air cash drive is on both Star 92.7 and 93.5 KKBN from 6 AM – Noon.

One hundred percent of all donations go to Interfaith Social Services to help Tuolumne County families in need and cash donations are tax deductible.

Call (209) 533-1450 to donate.

The first five years of this event the community donated well over $100,000 cash and more than 6,000 coats. The donations helped Interfaith meet local needs for many months.

Tomorrow (Saturday), residents and businesses can again join the cause and drop off coat collections at Standard Park from 9 AM – Noon.

Santa Claus will arrive at 11 AM by helicopter courtesy of PHI Air Medical. Bring a camera as this is also a chance for kids to get a picture with Santa.

The “Newsmaker of the Day” is heard each weekday morning on AM 1450 KVML at 6:47, 7:47 and 8:47am.
