BAKERSFIELD, Calif. — Honor Flight Kern County has been grounded by the pandemic. The popular non-profit isn't shuttling veterans back and forth to Washington, DC, but they're still 'soaring' through local donations. Radio talk show host Ralph Bailey has raised more than $100,000 in three years, or more precisely, in nine hours. He's hosted a fund raising drive during his 3-hour show since 2018 and his listeners and friends have responded in a big way. Bailey dropped in on the 11am show LIVE to talk about the support local veterans get in Kern County, even during the coronavirus pandemic.
KERN Radio's Ralph Bailey hosted his 3rd fundraising drive to benefit Honor Flight Kern County and pulled in nearly $60,000 in three hours
