Greg & The Morning Buzz: Yes They Can
• iHeartMedia New Hampshire’s long-running and insanely popular Greg & The Morning Buzz, syndicated all across New England, is set to kick off its 30th annual Lend A Helping Can Radiothon and fundraiser to benefit 12 area charities working to combat local hunger and homelessness.
Thursday and Friday, Nov. 19 & 20, Greg & The Morning Buzz will extend its normal time-slot into a marathon 13 1/2 hour Radiothon from 5:30am-7pm and encourage listeners to donate to Lend A Helping Can by calling the station or by participating in an online auction of awesome stuff provided by local businesses, recording artists and record labels. “Our 30th year of Lend a Helping Can will definitely be the most challenging yet,” said Greg Kretschmar, the “Greg” portion of Greg & The Morning Buzz. “Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the need for food in our community is greater than ever while many of the resources we’ve relied on for fundraising in the past are limited. We look forward to helping our community in need with the help of our generous listeners.”
Lend A Helping Can started 30 years ago as a canned food donation drive. As the support from the New Hampshire community grew, the fundraiser evolved into an online auction and a radiothon. Last year, Lend A Helping Can raised over $175,000 to benefit local charities, and since its inception, the event has raised well over $1.2 million and hundreds of tons of canned food items to feed residents in need. The presenting sponsor for the radiothon is the Manchester-Boston Regional Airport. For a full list of auction items, to bid on an item or to make a donation, visit morningbuzz.com.
