Rick Bayless, host of the PBS series Mexico—One Plate at a Time is also lending support to the drive.

If you’d like to donate, you can drop off non perishable food items at these Broadway Bank locations.

There are also opportunities for local schools to help.

You can find more information about how schools can enroll and promote the food drive in the Participation form and School Toolkit provided on the KLRN website.

Good Morning America picked up on his effort and Alan uploaded the GMA piece to YouTube.

According to Alan:

My goal is simple: I want to help 100 million Americans save a minimum of $50 per month on family budget line on services such as phone, cable, internet, and more.That comes to $600 per family or $600 million in sum. That money can be used as savings, applied to something else you might want or need, or perhaps to be given to the charity of your choice or someone in need.

Amen to that.

So if Alan has inspired you to look for new ways to stretch your monthly budget, here are some links to the contact pages for the cable tv and phone companies that provide service in the San Antonio area:

Time Warner Cable
Grande Communications
GVTC
AT&T
T-Mobile
Sprint
Verizon Wireless
Pocket Communications

Good luck.
