Today is Blitz Day — the peak day for our annual CBC Calgary Suncor Food Bank Drive — and we're happy to report that we've surpassed our fundraising goal.

The total stood at $1,304,727 as of 7 p.m.

As in years past, we've set a goal to raise $1 million for the food bank over the holiday season.

Both the Calgary Eyeopener and Homestretch radio programs had live broadcasts from the lobby today, and a steady stream of donors brought in hundreds of thousands of dollars more for the food bank.

The collection drive continues until Christmas Eve, and you can donate online anytime.
