Dom & Jane = 6,887,880 Meals!

For the past 10 years, right before Thanksgiving, MIX 100’s Dom & Jane stay on the radio 24 hours over a two day period to raise money for Food Bank of the Rockies. Their amazing dedication to fighting hunger for our neighbors in need has turned this event into one of the largest fundraisers for FBR. Through the past 10 years, "The Dom & Jane Show" cast members, Dom Testa and Jane London, have raised enough money to provide 6,887,880 meals for
food-insecure individuals in our service area!



A group from Whiting Petroleum visits the studio to talk about their support of FBR.

Mayor Hickenlooper pops in to show his support!

Throughout the 2 days of Charity Marathon, Dom and Jane invite FBR donors to visit the studio and share their contributions to FBR with the listening audience. Stories of clients who utilize FBR’s service are aired throughout the programming and countless listeners call in to donate toward helping FBR continue the fight against hunger. The Marathon concludes with a Live Remote where members of the community can drop off donations with the Dom & Jane team.

We can’t imagine what we would do without the dedication of Dom and Jane and the entire Mix 100 team! Endless thanks for 10 years of partnership and millions and millions of meals provided!

Dom, Jane, Tizzy & Jeremy close out the marathon at the live remote.

It is fantastic that there are people like Dom & Jane willing to give of their time and energy to raise money for the local community. But, it is astounding to me, that in the western wealthy countries there are people going hungry. No doubt I'm politically naive?

@Jenny - it's absolutely very astounding, but there are just so many different factors at play. These guys really make a difference.
