Help us build a Field of Dreams for some deserving kids
October 27 is Make a Difference day for WBIR, and our parent company, Gannett. It's a day we are supposed to get out and make an impact in our community, and with your help, we want to create a Field of Dreams for the children of one of East Tennessee's poorest counties.
For many kids growing up in Scott County, the numbers are stacked against them. 85% of children recieve free or reduced lunch. Half of them, 43%, are on food stamps. That's on top of having the highest unemployment rate in the state, 17.5%.
