Fundraising Event "Giving Day" by Broadcasters Foundation Scheduled for June 24th
Get ready to mark your calendars, folks! The Broadcasters Foundation of America's BFOA Giving Day is setting up shop on Tuesday, June 24.
This exciting event is all about gathering funds and spreading the word about the foundation's vital mission. They're here to lend a helping hand to broadcast radio and television pros who find themselves in a truly tough spot due to a critical illness or disaster.
But here's the deal - it's not just about the money. The BFOA Giving Day also aims to spread awareness about the Broadcasters Foundation and its mission. The foundation wants to make sure that every broadcasting industry ally know that help is available if they ever need it.
Tim McCarthy, the foundation's president, put it like this: "Don't be a bystander! If you're part of this unstoppable broadcasting community, we hope you'll never need us. But rest assured, we'll be here for you if life takes a turn for the worse. The demand for aid keeps growing each year, and that's why we urge every broadcaster to consider a personal or corporate donation."
Scott Herman, the Broadcasters Foundation's chair, added: "Every dollar raised during BFOA Giving Day goes straight into grants that help out our fellow professionals who are going through some rough times. Be it emergency aid after a disaster or monthly support for someone dealing with a long-term, debilitating illness, the Broadcasters Foundation must always be there to offer a helping hand to those in need."
