Katz Media Group has raised over $34,000 for the Broadcasters Foundation of America during its ninth annual two-week company-wide membership drive. All money raised supports the Foundation’s mission to improve the quality of life, and maintain the personal dignity, of radio and television broadcast professionals who find themselves in acute need.
“Katz Media Group has been a longtime champion of the Broadcasters Foundation. We are extremely grateful to the Katz family for their belief in ‘giving back’ and continuing this charitable tradition. Their annual donation makes a huge impact for our colleagues in need,” said Jim Thompson, President of the Broadcasters Foundation of America.
“It is our honor to continue Stu’s legacy and give back to our incredible industry,” said Mark Gray, Chief Executive Officer for Katz Media Group. “As a board member, I have seen first-hand all the good they do. The turnkey fundraising program is easy for companies to implement. There is no obligation for employees to participate, yet every year I am immensely proud and appreciative of the continued generosity of the Katz team.”
The Broadcasters Foundation has distributed millions of dollars in aid to broadcasters who have lost their livelihood through a catastrophic event, debilitating disease or unforeseen tragedy.
