CANYON CREEK Magazine: Get more Australian music and support local

Targeted support needed for community radio

COVID-19 is accelerating pressure on local community radio stations to find ways to deliver key broadcast services efficiently and economically while finding a way to make more content remotely. Resources, staffing and volunteers, and revenue from sponsorship, donations and fundraising have all been impacted.

The CBAA is calling on the Federal Government to provide support across four target areas to ensure community radio stations across the country remain viable and can play their critical role during the pandemic.

Community broadcasters bring ANZAC to you

#GivingTuesdayNow is a global day of generosity and unity, and a great way for community radio to harness grassroots generosity, listener engagement, business and philanthropy activation and community support.
