Pittsburghers continue to show up for one another in extraordinary ways, and we’re incredibly grateful to our listeners, partners and sponsors who help make a real difference for families across our region.”

It’s a powerful reminder that every individual action can make a meaningful difference. The generosity demonstrated through this year’s radiothon helps ensure our neighbors across southwestern Pennsylvania have access to the nutritious food they need.”
“Giant Eagle is proud to once again support the ‘Feed the Need Radiothon’ alongside Audacy to benefit the important work of Greater Pittsburgh Community Food Bank,” said Jannah Drexler, Spokesperson, Giant Eagle. “As a Pittsburgh-based company, we realize the importance of stepping up to help our neighbors in need and, each year, we continue to be inspired by how our communities show up for one another.”
Greater Pittsburgh Community Food Bank was founded in Pittsburgh’s Hill District in 1980 to support those impacted by unemployment following the collapse of the steel industry. Today, it works with a network of more than 1,000 partner organizations across 11 counties to ensure individuals and families have access to nutritious food and resources that help build long-term stability. Audacy Pittsburgh partners with the Food Bank annually to help address food insecurity in the region.
