A ton of pasta

BANGOR – On Saturday, Jan. 15, Cumulus Broadcasting will team up to broadcast live from four Hannaford supermarkets to collect a minimum of 2,000 boxes of pasta – one ton – between 10 a.m. and 2 p.m. Last year, the project raised nearly four tons of pasta for local food cupboards.

Broadcasting live will be WWMJ 95.7 in Bangor, WQCB 106.5 in Brewer, WEZQ 92.9 in Ellsworth and WBZN 107.3 in Old Town.

A single one-pound box of pasta can feed a family of four. Supplies at local food cupboards are running low, and Cumulus wants to help them replenish.
