You can help Rewind 92.5 celebrate April Foods Day and help our neighbors in need.
We’ve teamed up with 217 Inc. and Smith Burger Company to raise money for the Eastern Illinois Foodbank.
All month long, we’re asking for your donations.
Then on Tuesday, April First, come see us at Epic Burger at 1305 South Neal in Champaign to drop off your donation.

A big thank you to our Hourly Sponsors for April Foods Day:

 

Your donation has a huge impact on our community.

• Every donation to Eastern Illinois Foodbank can have a huge impact! Each $1 donated provides three meals to a neighbor experiencing food insecurity
• At any given time, more than 134,000 people in eastern Illinois face food insecurity.
• Since 2019, child food insecurity in eastern Illinois has risen by nearly 40%. 1 in 6 children in our community currently experience hunger.
• In the past year, the Eastern Illinois Foodbank provided 11.1 meals—including 3.4 million pounds of produce—to more than 160 agencies and programs feeding our neighbors facing hunger.
• Eastern Illinois Foodbank serves an 18-county area in Eastern Illinois covering just over 14,500 square miles.
• Through their network of pantries alone, EIF distributed food to more than 1.6 million people last year.
• Last year EIF provided almost 673,000 meals in rural and underserved areas on their Foodmobile.
• Through partners like Feeding Our Kids and Food 4 Kids, last year more than 87,000 backpacks of food were distributed to schoolchildren to combat weekend hunger.
• More than 80,000 students and their families were provided food through the School Market program last year.
• Contrary to popular belief, the holidays are not a time of great need for food relief agencies. In fact, summertime is generally a time of highest demand, because children are out of school and there are increased financial pressures on parents.
