Cumulus Media Mobile’s 97.5 WABD teamed up with Feeding the Gulf Coast and local sponsors for its annual Camp Out for Hunger Food Drive. Aiming to address food insecurity on the Gulf Coast, over 3,000 pounds of food were donated by the community.
From November 8 to November 18, Mojo, WABD’s midday on-air host, camped out on a school bus until enough non-perishable food items were collected to fill the bus.
Mojo shared, “I have had no sleep and heard every car alarm and parking lot sound you can imagine, but it was all worth it. I am so grateful to the Gulf Coast community for showing up and giving back to Feeding the Gulf Coast. My dream of making sure families don’t go hungry started to take shape during Camp Out for Hunger. We’re planning to stuff another school bus in December, so stay tuned!”
Cumulus Mobile and Pensacola Regional Vice President and Market Manager Don Boyd added, “I couldn’t be prouder of Mojo and the entire Cumulus Mobile team for stepping up to meet such an important need in our community. Leveraging the power of our five market-leading radio stations and digital platforms, the team demonstrated the incredible impact we can have when we work together.”
