Hunger Bites (01 of 18)Did you know that we served over 200 women and children at our shelter last month? That’s about 210 women and children who otherwise would have had no where to go to escape abuse or a night on the street. And that’s just a portion of the 1,500 kids who spend their nights on the street in Indy throughout the year! If we ignore homelessness, it doesn’t go away.

You can help us to provide shelter, food, and a fresh start to our neighbors in need by joining us on Thursday, October 1 at our 6th annual Apple Fest. The Salvation Army is inviting those who live and do business downtown to Eat in the Street for homeless kids. And we’d like you to join us.

Booth space is only $100 for businesses ($50 for non-profits) and the funds raised at this event – through sponsorships and lunch – will be used to offer housing assistance, resources and support to moms and children find themselves homeless due to a financial struggles and domestic violence.

Good-bye to a friend

We lost a friend this week as Tom Severino lost his battle with cancer.
Thanks to Tom’s efforts and support, the Indianapolis community has helped raise thousands of dollars for our neighbors in need through the WIBC Radiothon and other station-supported events. We certainly appreciate all he’s done through his work at Emmis and all he’s meant to our mission. Talk about leading a life with purpose. Tom will be sadly missed.
