Sinclair Communications wants to give back to our community this school season, so WNIS, 96X, BOB FM, Sports Radio 850/96.5 and US1061 are joining forces with The Salvation Army on “The Write Stuff” July 27th – August 31st. We will collect school supplies and ask for monetary donations from our community and business partners.
The Salvation Army works day-in and day-out to help break the cycle of poverty in the Hampton Roads community. One of the most important ways is to encourage children to stay in school and focus on their education. Every summer, The Salvation Army collects school supplies and distributes them to thousands of children in need to help prepare them to go back to school with THE WRITE STUFF. Without the generosity of the local community and our business partners, The Salvation Army would be unable to provide this educational opportunity to our neighbors and the children in need in Hampton Roads.
Donate today and you can double your impact in our community.
Every donation, up to $10,000 will be matched.
