Public Service Announcements
Public Service Announcements (PSAs) are short, non-commercial announcements that are read on the air.
PSAs are a free platform for nonprofits to get the word out about their needs, upcoming fundraisers, special events, etc. These announcements are not scheduled, and may be either dated (for a particular event) or ongoing.
