OBERLIN, Ohio - WOBL and WDLW radio stations are having a "Tighty Whitie" campaign to help the homeless in Lorain County.
The radio station went as far as putting up a special Christmas tree decorated in underwear in its lobby.
The campaign is to help collect brand new, packaged undergarments for newborns through adults. The underwear will be distributed at Lorain County's Neighborhood Alliance Homeless Centers.
The "Tighty Whitie" Christmas Campaign will run from November 14 through December 9, with all donations to be collected and delivered to the people in need the week of December 12.
