The hilarious and lucrative appearance by the Sprankle family on the “Family Feud” television show last month will benefit three area Salvation Army food programs.
Sprankle family members have announced they will donate a portion of their “Family Feud” winnings, plus 10% of store sales from Campout for Community day on April 25, along with a match from PA Skill, which adds up to $20,000.
The Salvation Army food programs in Saxonburg in Butler County and Leechburg and Kittanning in Armstrong County will share the donation.
Karen Boltz, human services coordinator for the Salvation Army’s Saxonburg service unit, said the donation will allow her to continue the unique food box program.
