Dear Friends,
It has truly been a privilege to anchor the news here at KSHB for the past 16 years.
Our city is full of fascinating, caring and dynamic people who have tremendous stories to tell.
I have had the wonderful job of telling some of these stories about you. And you have been there with me as I shared some difficult stories of my own.
I would like to leave 41 Action with something that will have a positive impact on our community.
Operation Breakthrough (then called St. Vincent’s) was the first non-profit I covered when I first arrived in Kansas City. They still serve some 400 children from the city’s urban core every day with a daycare and preschool.
But they need your help with food to feed these little children.
I have set up an online food drive with a link here. All you have to do is decide what you want to donate and do it by credit card.
It would be an honor for me if you would participate in it.
Thank you for sharing your lives with me. I will never forget the wonderful years I have spent here at 41 Action News with you.
Fondly,
Elizabeth
