The 2025 Picayune-KBEY Food Drive runs 6 a.m.- 3 p.m. on Wednesday, Nov. 5.
Now in its fourteenth year, the drive aims to collect non-perishable food and monetary donations for those in need throughout the Highland Lakes. KBEY 103.9 FM, The Picayune magazine, and DailyTrib.com are all part of Victory Media. The family-owned, Burnet County-based business has been in the community for over 35 years.
“This food drive is a way for Victory Media to give back to the Highland Lakes community and support those who need it most,” Publisher Mandi Goldsmith said. “Every donation, no matter how big or how small, makes an impact.”
Donations can be made throughout the 6 a.m.-3 p.m. window on Wednesday at the Marble Falls Fire Station, 700 Avenue N, and the Burnet Fire Station, 2002 U.S. 281. Please only bring non-perishable food items. Cash and check donations will also be accepted.
Donations received at the Marble Falls location benefit The Helping Center. Donations received at the Burnet location benefit LACare.
KBEY 103.9 FM Radio Picayune hosts Ben Shields and Mac McClennahan will be broadcasting live from both locations and chatting with the charitable souls who pull through.
