WGTS\/Washington, DC listeners have been restocking food pantries around the DC area this summer with \u201cThe Great Cereal Box Drive,\u201d a Hands and Heart initiative. The station talked with leaders of local food ministries and discovered that one of the biggest food needs was for cereal. At every major event this summer, listeners generously donated boxes of cereal. As of this writing, listeners have brought over 1,700 boxes, and the total continues to grow. The cereal goes to food pantries at area churches in both the DC area and on the Eastern Shore.<\/p>\n
\u201cI think about how many families around the area will be enjoying a bowl of cereal donated by generous WGTS 91.9 listeners,\u201d said Director of Promotions and Community Engagement Ken Scribner. \u201cI am filled with so much admiration as I witnessed the \u2018Great Cereal Box Drive\u2019 being a blessing to both the giver and the receiver.\u201d<\/p>\n
