THV Summer Cereal Drive

What is the Summer Cereal Drive?

Did you know that 56% of all children who attend public school in the state of Arkansas depend on free- or reduced-price meals? During the summer months when school is out and those vital programs are unavailable, Arkansas children and families are left with an increased need for food. The Summer Cereal Drive provides hungry Arkansans with non-perishable breakfast items that are both nutritious and kid-friendly.

Every year, Today's THV This Morning with B.J., Alyson and Tom steps in to help fight hunger in Arkansas in the summer months. 2009 marks the 10th year of the Summer Cereal Drive. Help us commemorate this special anniversary as we attempt to collect 360,000 boxes for a ten-year cumulative total of one million boxes raised!
