WKYT and City of Lexington Launch Second Annual Food Drive

Lexington, KY, October 1, 2026 —

WKYT is collaborating with the City of Lexington to host the second annual “Lexington’s Big Give” food drive. This initiative aims to address food insecurity within the community by collecting donations to support local families and individuals in need.

As this marks the second year of the partnership, the event builds upon the efforts of the inaugural drive. Specific dates for the current year’s food drive were not provided. Similarly, details regarding the types of food items most needed, designated drop-off locations, or specific beneficiary organizations were not immediately available.

The partnership between a local media outlet like WKYT and municipal government signifies a joint commitment to community welfare. Such collaborations often leverage the media’s reach to raise awareness and mobilize public participation, while city government can help coordinate resources and identify areas with the greatest need.

Further information regarding the timeline, donation requirements, and how residents can participate is expected to be released. The success of this year’s drive will depend on community engagement and the generosity of its residents, continuing the effort initiated last year.
