Posted on June 27, 2011

A national webinar will be held on Tuesday, June 28 at 2pm ET to discuss plans for the next phase of the 170 Million Americans for Public Broadcasting campaign.

 


More than 370,000 citizen advocates have joined the 170 Million Americans for Public Broadcasting campaign, surpassing the organization's original goal of securing 250,000 advocates. As a a result, 170 Million has set their sites on a new target, one million advocates! The campaign relies on grassroots support to defend federal funding, which is vital to sustain local public media stations and organizations.
