"Coal Country" Raises Funds For WV Families
KENTUCKY/WEST VIRGINIA...
WXCC Radio spent most of Thursday taking up money for families affected by the Montcoal mining disaster and their day in the sun proved worthwhile. By 4 p.m, the group had raised approximately $8,000 to be donated to the worthy cause. Our region relies on coal and the coal business and we’re so proud of the work miners do,” said general manager Keith Casebolt. “We’re named ‘Coal Country’ and we try to honor that name as best we can.” Casebolt said he felt touched when employees asked for vacation days to raise money for the cause and thought they’d make a day out of it.
Another group broadcast from the Logan Walmart. They were Jamie Johnson, Joe Kinser, John Roberts, and Dwayne Amburgey. "Coal Country" will continue to take up donations for those affected by the Montcoal mining disaster and can be made at www.coalcountry 965.com.
