Nexstar Media Group’s FOX affiliate KDVR-TV and CW affiliate KWGN-TV Denver raised $210,000 for the Salvation Army during a virtual food and supply drive on March 26 to assist communities hardest hit by the coronavirus pandemic. The stations broadcast the telethon live on-air.

“In this difficult time, this drive has allowed us to provide assistance to thousands of people struggling because of the COVID pandemic, and this number will just continue to climb.
