ABOUT THE PROGRAM
The WCBE Delicious Donor Program is a community of local and national restaurants that donate meals to ‘CBE in support of fund drives, VIP events, and other social gatherings and occasions. The Delicious Donor Program thanks our dedicated food donors through a variety of media outlets, helping to promote their restaurants in return for their support of central Ohio’s NPR station.
