HUNTSVILLE, Ala. (TENNESSEE VALLEY LIVING) - The time of year has come for WAFF 48’s Can-a-thon drive! The annual food drive is a collaboration between the news station and local Walmart locations across North Alabama.
TVL host Payton Walker was posted at a Walmart store to shine a spotlight on the importance of this food drive and have a little fun in true TVL fashion while doing so!
She began the day with a sit-down interview with The Food Bank of North Alabama’s Development Director, Bobby Bozeman, who discussed why the organization’s mission remains so essential year after year, especially as food insecurity continues to be a prevalent issue.
Walmart Team Lead Adonis Burns joined the party to host a fun, friendly competition between Payton and TVL team member Breona Winn! They played a ‘Guess That Price Tag’ game for several canned goods you can consider donating to Can-a-thon this year!
Payton also sat down with Kristie Ray, Senior Vice President of Bryant Bank, to discuss how the bank’s sponsorship of Can-a-thon, among other community initiatives throughout the year, embodies the broader mission to serve the area in even more fulfilling ways beyond regular bank services.
