On Saturday, February 20, Radio One St. Louis, home of Hot 104.1 (WHHL) and Old School 95.5 (WFUN), collected over 7,000 cases of water during their Flint Water Drive. Along with partners Project Compassion NFP, The Korey Johnson Foundation, and Beyond Limits Production, the station held one of the city’s largest water drives in history.
Radio One St. Louis VP/General Manager Gary Gunter said, “This outstanding effort is what the Radio One mission statement is all about…serving and providing for the community. I couldn’t be more proud.”
Radio One St. Louis received an overwhelming response from the community who donated both water and their time to help support the Flint relief efforts. The water donations began the week leading up to the water drive and continued into Saturday evening. The final count of collected water filled two semi-trucks and will be transported to Flint at the end of February to assist with their ongoing need for clean water.
