Donations to Food Pantry Grow

WAND TV’s 3 Degree Guarantee is getting better for the Moultrie County Food Pantry.
Kristy Dawson, Moultrie Food Pantry Director, reported that by Friday, January 22 the 3 Degree Guarantee had grown to $650. Presentation will be made during the WAND -TV 6 p.m. newscast on Wednesday, February 3 by the station and co-sponsor IBEW Local 146.
A Moultrie County challenge has also been issued to match the WAND 3 Degree Guarantee in an effort to double up on the effort to help those who need food in Moultrie County.
During the month of January when chief meteorologist JC Fultz gets the weather forecast correct within three degrees, the television station and IBEW Local 146 contribute $50 to the charity of the month.
Since the 3 Degree Guarantee began in June 2014 WAND TV and the IBEW Local 146 have given $16,000 to area charities. The best month in 2015 meant an $1100 charity donation.
