Charitable Radio gets ready to make Radio For Good
A new radio service describing itself as a philanthropic station will launch on 16th May with JustGiving and Virgin Money Giving as partners.
Charitable Radio will promote the work of volunteers, fundraisers and charities, and will act as a vehicle for fundraising to a soundtrack of uplifting pop music.
Organisers say it is creating a platform that celebrates the work of volunteers, fundraisers and charities to a soundtrack of late 70s-present day pop music.
Sophie Greig, Head of Brand at JustGiving, said: “We’re very excited to join forces with Charitable Radio. With around 89% of the population tuning into radio every week, we look forward to being able to share with listeners the stories of amazing humans doing incredible things for the causes they care about.
The holidays are a time for people to give back, and in ways that do not only involve money. We in the community, need to meet our community needs,” said Jeanne Naquin secretary treasurer of Lifting Hand’s Ministry, a Christian nonprofit.
