With the holiday season fast approaching, now is the time for the community to come together and help those who are less fortunate. As hard as it is to hear, one in twelve North Dakotans will seek food assistance and hundreds go homeless every day.

For the 8th year, Townsquare Media is teaming up with Missouri Slope Areawide United Way for '96 Hours of Caring' to raise awareness and donations for 8 local charitable organizations. Right now, you can drop off any items or donations at any local American Family Insurance office or at the Townsquare Media studios located at 4303 Memorial Hwy on the Strip in Mandan.

Over 3,000 pounds of food was collected in 2012!
