WDEL

Today's the day! The WDEL Feed a Friend Campaign is officially on starting at 9AM. Remember that this event raises funds for the Newark Area Welfare Committee, the Sunday Breakfast Mission, the Emmanuel Dining Room, YWCA Delaware and the St. Paul’s Church Outreach Center -- all great organizations working to feed our neighbors who might need a little help. For each $11.50 you can pledge, these groups can buy a case of food -- a great deal for the money. We're encouraging all of DL's readers and commenters to call WDEL during Al Mascitti’s show from 9 til 12 to pledge what you can to this worthy cause. If you can, please help spread the word to your Facebook friends and ask them to call in too.

Every year, WDEL devotes a day of programming (at least from 9 til 4 or so) to raising funds for a number of great institutions who are trying to help feed Delawareans in need -- the Newark Area Welfare Committee, the Sunday Breakfast Mission, the Emmanuel Dining Room, YWCA Delaware and the St. Paul’s Church Outreach Center. And it is a great deal too -- every $11.50 pledge buys a case of food to help feed some of our neighbors in need. Tomorrow -- Thursday 5 December -- is this year's Feed A Friend Day and we encourage all DL readers and commenters to call WDEL during Al Mascitti's show from 9 til 12 to pledge what you can to this worthy cause. Why Al Mascitti's show? Because Al has a goal of raising $10,000 tomorrow AM (he's going to do a 10% match up to $1000.00); because his show is the only local one working at deconstructing right-wing memes; and because he takes El Som off of our hands for a few hours during the week. :lol: We'll post the phone number to call in the morning, and remind you to call and pledge in multiples of $11.50. (They'll take credit cards.) After you pledge, it would be really fantastic if you'd go to your Facebook page and ask your friends to call in to pledge too.
