KARK 4 is grateful to all the Arkansans who called during our 4 The Greater Good phone bank Tuesday and Wednesday to raise money for the Arkansas Rice Depot.

More than $25,000 was raised from call-in donations during KARK 4 News at 5, 6, 7 & 10 yesterday and during KARK 4 Today and KARK 4 News at Noon today.

Hungry kids can struggle in the classroom and with school set to start, KARK 4 wanted to help make sure Arkansas kids have the food they need to fuel their brains.

The donations go to the depot's Food for Kids program.

Thank You Arkansas for being a part of 4 The Greater Good!
