Earlier this month we were part of the tradition- 96 Hours Of Caring...

...it was either our 18th or 19th year. Cash Wise Foods and Townsquare Media teamed up with a huge list of sponsors of people, and local businesses who all had one goal - to help families in need, making sure that there is food on the table, especially with the holidays coming up.

MISSOURI SLOPE ARE WIDE UNITED WAY

THE BANQUET-DREAM CENTER

AID INC. SELF HELP CENTER

MINISTRY ON THE MARGINS

Dolly has been entertaining BisMan for years on Cool 98.7, she also has shown how much she loves her job by embracing all of her listeners and letting them know of the fight that Dolly is going through - the battle against cancer. She has been off the air as of late, but as you can tell by watching this video, people LOVE her and want Dolly to know how much they care:

 

Once again the power of people who genuinely care about one another., that's what North Dakota is all about.
