My favorite thing about working in radio isn’t always the show itself. To me, the best moments come when the platform is used (and combined with other platforms) to do good.
We saw the power of radio+social media during the grassroots fight for the Kings , and we saw it again this week in response to the Camp Fire.
So many of you responded with your donations, generosity, time, and effort. It is simultaneously exhilarating and humbling. I wanted to simply highlight just a few of the many that pitched in, and say simply: Thank You…..

I was going to be in Chico today to attend my aunt's funeral who had passed away last Thursday not fire related but she had been a teacher at Paradise Elementary School. No greater way to honor her. #DoOneThing @CarmichaelDave pic.twitter.com/nVWnAE5ZlT

RECAP!
Yesterday the 1st #DoOneThing caravan launched.
They were in double digits for cars, a flatbed truck, drivers, and a bunch of supplies.
Visited multiple sites, and ended at the Chico Wal-Mart to meet up with Dan and so many others. pic.twitter.com/EyQZIwz3Di

The KHTK warehouse was filled with your kindness, loading up supplies as we speak for the caravan #DoOneThing pic.twitter.com/J2DmHycLMU
