These awards are not cash grants, but rather the commitment of resources by 104.1 WLBC & 92.5 WMUN or 104.9 WERK-FM & 93.5 MAX. Together our stations provide a coverage area that reaches nearly half a million people or more. Unfortunately, while we have increased the number of grants awarded, we cannot feature all the worthy organizations that applied.
For the worthwhile causes and organizations that did not receive a grant, we will frequently support their efforts by providing access to our community calendar and announcements.
