Radio station ESPN680/93.9 The Ville has been running a program for the last five years called Cram the Van where they collect money and items to benefit local charities. St. Vincent de Paul Louisville was thrilled to be included in the list of charities this year. Through donations by corporate partners, including a matching donation of $5,000 from Phocus Sparkling Water, and listeners, they were able to raise a record $50,000+. “Our listeners along with Tom O’Grady with Phocus and our other partners never cease to amaze me. In a pandemic, we more than tripled our previous year’s total. We were thrilled to add St. Vincent de Paul to our list of charities. The work they do for the homeless is wonderful and we are pleased to help in their efforts,” said Drew Deener, Vice President and a radio host. St. Vincent de Paul Louisville was given over $15,000 to spend at the shopping spree at Kohl’s Springhurst on Tuesday, December 15th. We were able to get much needed winter coats, gloves, toboggans, jeans and shoes for our men at Ozanam Inn and the clothes closet. We want to thank ESPN680/93.9 The Ville and their partners and listeners for their generosity.
