93.9 The Eagle’s One For One Holiday Food Drive is Dec. 14

By

Our holiday tradition is back, and more important than ever!

The 93.9 The Eagle/Commerce Bank One-For-One Holiday Food Drive to benefit The Food Bank of Central and Northeast Missouri is coming up on Wednesday, December 14th!

Join us in supporting our community, giving back to those who need it the most this holiday. The Food Bank serves around 100,000 people a month and covers a 32 county service area. It distributed over 32 million pounds of food in 2020, equaling a $50 million wholesale value. The need is greater than ever and continues to grow.

From 6a-6p, we’ll be teaming with Inside Columbia Magazine and Columbia Professional Firefighters collecting donations at the Columbia Mall just off Stadium (by Wendy’s).  There will also be donation locations INSIDE the Mall (between JCP and the Food Court), as well as in front of Orschlen Farm & Home off Missouri Blvd in Jefferson City.

The easiest and most impactful way you can give is with an online monetary donation. Not only is it contactless, but with the Food Bank’s partnerships, they can turn a $1 donation into 4 meals, $25 into 100 Meals!! A $270 donation can provide Buddy Packs to one student for a full school year.

 

Donate online right now by clicking the link below and The Crossing will MATCH your donation!

You can also text “FOOD” to 800-500-9107 for a quick donation link, thanks to Equipment Share.

Or donate on Dec. 16th with the Missouri Pork Association Phone Bank: 573-447-6600

Friends and family to remember Jefferson City J Pfenny murder victim today

Visitation is set for Thursday afternoon in Jefferson City for the J Pfenny’s employee who was shot to death early Saturday morning inside the restaurant.

26-year-old Skylar Smock’s visitation is today from 2-4 at Freeman Mortuary. He leaves behind a six-year-old daughter. A gonfunddme to raise money for Smock’s funeral expenses and to assist his daughter has raised about $6,700 so far. Their aim is to raise $10,000.

The second murder victim is Corey Thames. Our news partner KMIZ reports Thames leaves behind eight children. ABC-17 reports Smidgett Cakes is raising money to help Thames’ mother pay for the funeral expenses.

Cole County prosecutors have charged 35-year-old Damien Davis of Kansas City with two counts of first degree murder for the deaths. Davis was arraigned via video on Monday.

Court documents obtained by 939 the Eagle say there were several dozen patrons inside J Pfenny’s during the early Saturday morning incident. The Jefferson City Police Department’s probable cause statement says it began as an altercation between Davis and Thames, and that Smock separated the two and tried to escort Thames out of the business. Davis then shot Skyler Smock in the back of the head and shot Thames multiple times in his upper torso and chest areas, according to the court documents.
