The six-station cluster collected five large semi-trucks filled with bottled water to help flood victims in the Southeast Wisconsin area, where unprecedented flash floods contaminated water wells leaving many residents with no access to drinking water and electrical power. News/Talk 1130 WISN, FM106.1, 95.7 BIG FM, The Big 920, 97-3 NOW, and V100.7 held the water drive on Friday, July 14 from 6 a.m. to 6 p.m. at the Pettit National Ice Center in Milwaukee. On-air personalities Shannen O from FM106.1 and Producer Dave from 97-3NOW stopped by the Pettit Center to broadcast a portion of the event.
“The iHeartMedia Milwaukee team and our listeners are committed to the people in the Milwaukee community. They saw their neighbors in need and jumped to action in a matter of hours,” said Kerry Wolfe, Operations Manager for iHeartMedia Milwaukee. “It was truly a team effort among all six of our radio station brands. We are grateful for our loyal listeners throughout the Milwaukee metro area who donated and made this event an amazing success.”
