Food For Families Food Drive 2009
December 9th, 2009


The holidays are a time when family and friends come together. As the family of KBTX prepares for the holidays, we invite you and your family to join us Wednesday, December 9th for the 14th annual Food for Families Food Drive.

During this event we will broadcast live throughout the day. Shop any of your local grocery stores using the list below as a guide to help you support this incredible effort that benefits the Brazos Valley Food Bank and area pantries. Together, we can make a difference.

Join us at any of three locations this year; the Brazos Center, 5:30 a.m. to 10:35 p.m., The Kimbro Center in Madisonville or Mid-South Synergy in Navasota from 6:00 a.m.-7:00 p.m., to drop off your donation, as we work to end hunger in the Brazos Valley.

To your family, from our family at KBTX, HAPPY HOLIDAYS!
