91.9FM/91.5FM/91.3FM/88.5FM The Family: The Family Radio Network (Appleton, Green Bay, Wausau/Stevens Point/Sheboygan, WI) set new records with their 2018 “Help for the Homeless” hygiene drive. $410,000 worth of new hygiene and cleaning products were donated to local crisis programs in 15 Northeast and Central Wisconsin communities. Eighty-three crisis agencies benefited from the drive which is in its 26th year.
More than 875 local businesses, churches, and schools participated by placing collection boxes in their high-traffic areas and inviting their own staff, members, and students to donate for three weeks this spring. Public collection boxes were hosted by Festival Foods Stores, Shopko Stores, and Walgreens. Donations remain in the community where they are collected. The goal of “Help for the Homeless” is to supply a year’s worth of products to each agency.
