7Cares Idaho Shares
The 14th annual 7Cares Idaho Shares will take place Saturday, Dec. 11 from 8 AM to noon. The KTVB fundraiser was exclusively virtual in 2020, but 7Cares Idaho Shares is returning to a live event in 2021 while also accepting donations online.
- This is the 14th year of this annual event. KTVB’s reach is SW Idaho and into Western Oregon.
- Last year (2020) KTVB collected 123,488 lbs. of food that was divided between The Idaho Foodbank, Salvation Army and Boise Rescue Mission.
- 7Cares Idaho Shares began in 2008 as a food and cash donation drive at the KTVB studios.
- Prior to the pandemic, KTVB was generously donating approximately $75k to each benefitting nonprofit, but in 2020, 7Cares Idaho Shares was able to provide $330k to each nonprofit.
Donations of both food and cash can be taken at all 8 locations including 4 Fred Meyer locations and 4 Albertsons stores in Idaho.
KTVB will be asking for financial donations from Nov 29 – Dec 10th every day during three news broadcasts (morning, noon, evening).
