KNIA/KRLS along with the Knoxville Hy-Vee made a stop Tuesday at Helping Hands to drop off food that had been collected as part of the 16th Annual KNIA/KRLS Food Drive.

Chuck Galeazzi with Helping Hands tells KNIA/KRLS News Tuesday’s food drop shows the community coming together for Christmas. Galeazzi says the food drop primed the pump for the annual Christmas effort. In total KNIA/KRLS and the Knoxville Hy-Vee donated over 60 turkeys to Helping Hands to help give families in Marion County a Christmas dinner.
