WHUR

WHUR listeners gave online at WHUR.com, stopped by the radio station’s Howard University studios with cash and checks, and even dropped off trunk loads of non-perishable food to pack a truck. Howard University student volunteers were on hand to collect the donations from motorists. At the end of the day, donations topped $40,000.

This event was an official ROAD TO 50 private showcase where the Grammy Award winner serenaded us with his timeless hits and even let us hear his new song too.
