Salt Lake City donates neary 700 pounds of food to Utah Food Bank
Our Salt Lake City operation recently had the privilege to work with the Utah Food Bank and get the opportunity to give back, showcasing our commitment to not only one another but our inherent core values within the organization. According to Taylor Hedding, Administrative Supervisor at SLC, “We can happily say it was a tremendous success, far exceeding our early expectations by a substantial amount. Not only were we able to meet the base of filling the provided gaylord but then continue to donate to an impressive total of 696 lbs., going beyond for an additional 39.2% increase over the original goal.” The collective effort amongst everyone here in SLC paved the way to help families in need during the holiday season and really play a positive role within our community. “We’re proud of what we’ve accomplished and look forward to carrying that torch of positivity and impact into future charitable initiatives and events,” said Taylor. This is another great example of our United Radio core value. “We have a responsibility to each other to create a better community.” Thank you everyone.
