1010 WINS is once again partnering with WhyHunger for its annual Hungerthon charity drive in partnership with WhyHunger. 1010 WINS and other Entercom stations will conduct live Hungerthon broadcasts as well as the opportunity to bid on exclusive memorabilia and experiences donated by musicians, athletes and celebrities.

"Our mission at WhyHunger is to ensure that access to nutritious food is not only a reality, but a right for the 40 million Americans struggling to meet that basic need," said Noreen Springstead, executive director of WhyHunger. "We’re working on meaningful and sustainable solutions to end poverty and hunger. The funds raised through Hungerthon are crucial to strengthening our efforts. Thank you to our partners at Entercom New York, ambassadors and supporters for once again coming together for this time-honored tradition."
