The entire iHeartMedia Chicago cluster of radio station will be helping the local Chicagoland community in their own unique way. Every station will be participating in a month-long “season of Thanksgiving.” Here’s how they plan to do it.
iHeartMedia Chicago will support various initiatives for “Season of Thanksgiving” including:
• The Salvation Army’s Virtual Red Kettle, a fundraiser for those less fortunate in the community.
• Giving A Helping Hand Food Drive to benefit food pantries in the Chicagoland area.
• V103’s Turkey Giveaway, donating 80 turkeys in partnership with The Steve Harvey Morning Show Annual Turkey Giveaway.
• Rock 95.5 will host a ham giveaway for 25 listeners.
• 107.5 WGCI’s midday host Frankie Robinson will award five families with $250 to assist with their Thanksgiving dinner in partnership with Ada S. McKinley Community Services.
• Inspiration 1390 will award four families with Thanksgiving dinners.
• 103.5 KISS FM and Korean Pop band BLACKPINK will offer listeners a chance to win $1,000 on Black Friday.
Market President Matt Scarano: “This has been a difficult year for our community. Our team is constantly looking for grassroots opportunities to support our listeners and the community, especially during the holiday season.”
