Drive Away Hunger October 14th

Magic 94.9 and AVR are proud to support the FCC with their annual Drive Away Hunger Campaign in support of 4 local food banks in the valley and Feed Nova Scotia. This year over 22,000 pounds of food (and monetary equivilent) was raised! Thank you to all of the schools and businesses who made this years event a huge success. Over 20,000 Nova Scotians need to use food banks each month and over 6500 of those are children.

On October 14th I drove the Cruiser and followed behind the Drive Away Hunger tractor trailer as we made our way to different stops from Berwick to New Minas collecting donations for the Food Bank.
