KSQD Celebrates California Public Radio Day Aug. 26

Posted by Rachel Goodman | Aug 24, 2021 | Station News, Updates | 0

Thursday, August 26th is California public radio day. KSQD is proud to say we’ve grown in our community service mission and our mission to create community. This past year has underlined the importance of access to trustworthy public media for everyone in our communities. In the face of unprecedented challenges, public radio stations across the state stand together united for what connects us. We believe in public radio’s ability to uplift voices of the community, to entertain, educate, inform, and inspire, and so do our listeners. From timely and localized reporting on fires to shining a light on our communities, public radio is essential. But without the financial support of our listeners, we are at great risk of faltering on this mission. We are overjoyed to see our ranks grow in our second year proving that California Public Radio Day is here to stay as a day for us to celebrate our love for what we provide to our state.
