Prescott, Prescott Valley Virtual food drive April 24

Prescott and Prescott Valley Chambers partner with radio group to help food banks

On Friday, April 24, the Prescott and Prescott Valley Chambers of Commerce are hosting a Virtual Food Drive in partnership with Arizona’s Hometown Radio Group.

The public is invited to participate in this effort to help raise $2,000 for groceries for local food banks in desperate need of help.

Radio stations Mix 106.7 FM KPPV and 94.7 JACK FM will match pledges up to a total of $1,000 toward the Prescott Community Cupboard Food Bank and Prescott Valley Food Bank.

Both food banks are working hard to meet the demand from a growing number of unemployed residents who are depending on their services.

To participate, go to kppv.com or jackfmarizona.com and click on the food drive link.

During this time, gift cards and food can be dropped off between 11 a.m. and 2 p.m. at the Prescott Chamber, 117 W Goodwin Street, or the Prescott Valley Chamber office, 7120 Pav Way.

However, to get your pledge matched go to either of the websites and click on the food drive button link, or visit the donation page at kppv.com/virtual-food-drive.
