Local radio station’s quiz night raises over $11,000 for Peel Community Kitchen
91.7 The Wave and Peel Thunder’s charity quiz night, held last Friday, was a resounding success, raising $11,307 for the Peel Community Kitchen.
The event, hosted by 91.7 The Wave breakfast presenters Gunners and Ali, drew over 200 people to the Peel Thunder Platinum Room for an evening of fun, laughter, and community spirit.
The Peel Community Kitchen, a local charity, serves more than 1,000 meals weekly to individuals and families struggling with food insecurity. Their dedicated volunteers provide essential support to a diverse range of community members, including local people experiencing homelessness, the unemployed, elderly pensioners, children and families facing financial hardship.
The quiz night featured: Exciting raffles and auctions of items graciously donated by fantastically generous local businesses, a beautiful speech from Counsellor Amber Kearns, engaging trivia rounds, and a special guest appearance from Western Australian MLA David Templeman as Demis Roussos.
Everyone not only enjoyed a memorable evening but also contributed to a worthy cause, demonstrating the power of community support.
Making a Difference
“We’re thrilled with the outcome of this event,” said Daniel Gunn, breakfast show co-host of 91.7 The Wave.
“The generosity of our community never ceases to amaze us, and we’re proud to support the incredible work of the Peel Community Kitchen,” said Ali Hill, fellow breakfast co-host of 91.7 The Wave.
“With the cost of living being one of the major issues we are facing, we couldn’t be more grateful for the response from our community,” said Kyan Mears, Promotions Coordinator at 91.7 The Wave.
The funds raised will significantly boost the kitchen’s ability to continue its mission of providing nutritious meals and support to those in need throughout the Peel region.
