Residents can donate non-perishable food or cash at four Kingston-area locations Thursday.
Presented by Decor Coatings, Kingston residents will have a chance to help fill local food bank shelves Thursday during the All Hands on Deck Food Drive.
Kingston My Broadcasting Corporation general manager, Paul Burton explains more.
Staff from 98.3 FLY FM, New Country 98.9 and 102.7 WOW FM will broadcast live from four locations from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. on Aug. 27.
Donation sites include Giant Tiger at the RioCan Centre, Giant Tiger at 813 Princess St., Van Wart’s Your Independent Grocer and Foodland Amherstview.

The food bank provides groceries to people in Kingston and the surrounding area, including non-perishable and fresh food. It also distributes surplus food to local meal providers. Burton shows gratitude to the community.
Residents are encouraged to stop by one of the locations Thursday and help support people facing food insecurity in the community.
