Our hometown guy Sam is matching donations to the Freestore Foodbank. If you can help a lot of our neighbors are struggling right now
Carlos Dunlap has offered to match Sam so now for every $1 donated the Food Bank gets $3
Does anyone know if the food bank donation is given to just Cincinnati or surrounding suburb food banks> I know many are hurting, I just saw a notice from Loveland begging for donations.

Sometimes, I love this team. Nicely done.

Thanks for posting this. As of now, people have donated over $11,000.
Tri Health is matching the second $9400
The first set of donations raised $28,200 with what the public raised, Sam's match, and Carlos's match. Another $28,000 would be awesome and so helpful to so many who are struggling
These are the good stories in this time that give you faith in humanity.
Well done Sam and Big Los.

The Bengals are now matching the donations
