You may see KCII’s Big Red Radio traveling across southeast Iowa today. The Big Red Radio will be delivering donations of food and toiletry items to help restock area food pantries’ shelves after the busy holiday season. You’ll see the Big Red Radio in Washington, Sigourney, Wellman, Kalona, Mt. Pleasant and Ainsworth. The items donated were collected at the end of 2015 as part of KCII’s 13th annual Caring Christmas Food Drive. The goal was to fill the Big Red Radio and with the donations made at participating businesses, that goal was reached.
