How a food donation can bring you to California State fair

Or do you look at the show on YouTube? Well, the State Fair starts another weekend full of celebrations today and you could apply free of charge by taking part in Smud's Giving on Friday. Teo Torres from KCRA 3 now joins us from Cal Expo. And really, it's a very simple question, they say. Yes yes. Oh very, very simple. And we have a large series of people who are already waiting to go through the BAG check. And then it's a kind of smooth sailing while going through. However, if you want to get in free of charge, you would like to know about this event. KCra Smud, who is merging on Friday. It was always known as Monday. What you do is that you bring five not perishable foods such as canned goods or pasta. No problem, Ma'am, thank you for the donation. We also have a little Jif Peanut Butter here. Bring five items per person to your group and each of them receives a free admission ticket to the trade fair that can be used today. So that's nice. The fair entry is between $ 12 and $ 18, so it's a victory. It is also a victory for the non -profit organization that benefits this year. Sacramento Food Bank and Family Services. Hey strangers, haven't seen you for a while. Blake Young here. Let us talk about receiving donations this year to receive the donations. And, you know because lately you have recently and recently and similar things that you have felt a bit, right? Oh, you bet. I mean, food and food resources have never been higher in my entire career. I mean, activities like this are just so wonderful. Our partnership with Smud, the California State Fair, we are only blessed to have this opportunity, and all these wonderful people out here, the canned goods. Now tell me, give me just like a kind of statistics about something that could be a bit, you know, impressive when it comes to the number of people you serve. Shortly before Covid, we provided 150,000 people a month. Today there are 330,000 people. WOW. That gives you a good hint. More than 100% have increased since pandemic. And between inflation and other things, people only have a very difficult time. So again activities like this are simply incredible. And we are happy to be part of it. All right, Blake, we appreciate it. Nice to talk to you. And you have just seen some of the trash cans. We have a little work to do here. You have three trucks. You would like to see them all fully. So come out here now to reach the Cal Expo. We are here until 2:00 a.m. at the main gate, at the green gate and at the blue gate. And if you bring five not perishable foods, go away with a smud and give free admission to the state fa on Friday
