The KFI PastaThon is an annual event that encourages listeners to donate money, pasta, and sauce to benefit Caterina’s Club, a local charity that provides more than 25,000 nutritious meals every week to children in need in Southern California. The charity also helps families get back into stable home environments and teaches teens the skills they need to work in the hospitality industry.

This year, all 168 Wendy’s restaurants in Southern California have continued their partnership and offered customers the opportunity to donate from Wednesday, November 15 through Sunday, December 10.

Since 2010, with the help of listeners, local businesses, and the continued partnership with Smart & Final stores and Barilla Pasta, the KFI PastaThon event has raised over $7.2 million and 831,000 pounds of pasta and sauce for children in need in the community.

“Once again, the KFI audience has come through with incredible generosity and kindness,” said Robin Bertolucci, Program Director for KFI AM 640. “This is our 13th year and every year we are touched by the giving spirit of KFI listeners.
