Washington, D.C. (Monday, November 25, 2024) – With just three days to go before Thanksgiving, WHUR hit the streets today to help those experiencing homelessness. Armed with bags of groceries and gift cards courtesy of Shabach Ministries, Inc. and the Steve Harvey Morning Show Turkey Give; WHUR sought to spread joy and support to those in need across the DMV.

The initiative was part of WHUR’s Season of Giving Campaign to reach out to our less fortunate neighbors in time for Thanksgiving. “As a radio station, one of our goals is to extend kindness and generosity as a way to uplift others. We are grateful for the opportunity to pay it forward to ensure as many people as possible can experience the joy and fellowship that Thanksgiving brings,” said WHUR General Manager Sean Plater.

The bags of groceries and gift cards were given out at McPherson Square in NW, D.C., United Planning Organization Shelter, New York Avenue Presbyterian Church, the Walmart in Clinton, and Silver Spring Men’s Shelter.

“It’s all about bringing the true spirit of Thanksgiving to life by coming together to support one another. We are able to make a difference in the community because of the support of our generous sponsors and listeners. Stay tuned to WHUR for further details and updates. Your support makes a profound difference, and we thank you for being part of our mission to help those in need,” added Plater.

From all of us at WHUR, the Steve Harvey Morning Show, and Shabach Ministries, Inc., we wish you a Thanksgiving filled with gratitude and love.
