DPCGC launches awareness campaign on OTT
The Broadcasters Foundation expects to award approximately $1.8 million in aid this year.
Broadcasters giving back to broadcasters is the key tenet of the annual Year-End Giving Campaign sponsored by the Broadcasters Foundation of America.
The nonprofit organization recognizes that life can change in an instant, whether that be because of severe illness, family tragedy, natural disasters or other accidents. And so, the organization’s Year-End Giving Campaign was created to provide aid to broadcast radio and television colleagues who are in immediate need of financial assistance.
“The Broadcasters Foundation is often the last hope for our peers suffering from severe illness or recovering from disaster,” said Tim McCarthy, foundation president. “To date, we have never turned away a broadcaster who qualified for aid. Donations, in any amount, can ensure that the Broadcasters Foundation continues that track record.”
Over the last 20 years, the foundation has distributed more than $15 million in aid. The foundation expects to award approximately $1.8 million in 2023.
As we approach the end of the year, the foundation is asking individuals and corporations for personal tax-deductible donations to its Guardian Fund. Corporate donations can be given to the Angel Initiative, which is also tax deductible. RadioWorld
