Pay it 4ward Hotline: Roadrunner Food Bank donations being matched

KOB 4 is partnering with Roadrunner Food Bank once again Wednesday to help them continue to provide their crucial help to New Mexican families this winter.

KOB partnered with Roadrunner Food Bank once again Wednesday to help them continue to provide their crucial help to New Mexican families this winter.

During the month of December, the first $125,000 in donations will be matched by partners including the Abram and Ray Foundation, Jackalope, and Smith’s Food and Drug Stores.

During our two-hour hotline, 159 donors gave a total of $20,990. After the donation-match, that means $41,980. Roadrunner Food Bank staff also took 47 calls to help people find the food assistance they needed.

With the donation matching that will continue throughout the month of December, every dollar you donate can provide 10 meals to new Mexican families instead of the normal five meals. So, if you weren’t able to donate during the hotline, please consider donating online now. 

And if you or someone you know needs food assistance, Roadrunner Food Bank is always ready to connect you to the best resource in your area. The RRFB website has all the information you need about where you can Find Help and ways to donate money, food, or your time!
