The Kentucky State Police announced Friday that its Seventh Annual Cram the Cruiser food drive gathered nearly 170 tons of food to help Kentucky families struggling financially during the holiday season. KSP Commissioner Rick Sanders said they surpassed last year’s campaign by more than 46 tons. He commented that the spirit of giving is a genuine public service that will make a real difference to many families facing difficult times. The program began in 2010 to assist needy families and has contributed over one million pounds of food to shelters, food banks, and churches throughout the state.
