  4. John Williams' Peanut Butter and Jolly Drive!

    After hearing food banks were experiencing a shortage on one of their most important staples, peanut butter, we got a nutty idea. So, we spread the word and started a one day peanut butter drive. In a Jif, we had 18 listeners offer their businesses as donation locations throughout the Chicagoland area. The next day, our wonderful listeners Skippy-ed on over to a collection site and donated.
