"When the Broadcasters Foundation of America first intervened and began giving us monthly grant assistance, we were literally at the end of our financial rope, and one month away from defaulting on our mortgage payment. With all other options for meeting our needs exhausted, these grant payments have been the deciding factor of whether or not we can remain in our home and pay our bills and expenses.

We are inexpressibly grateful for this assistance from the kindness of my fellow broadcasters. Thank you for all that you have done for us so far. I don't know where we would be without the Broadcasters Foundation. We were on the brink of going into foreclosure before you started helping us. Each month, when we are able to make that mortgage payment on time and meet our other obligations, we are acutely aware of that fact, and are always profoundly grateful."

BFOA has teamed up with Dr. Steven M. Zeitels from the patient nonprofit Voice Health Institute (VHI) to offer broadcast industry professionals information about laryngeal and voice care.

“The Broadcasters Foundation has done amazing work over many years,” observed Dr. Zeitels. “I am impressed with their transparency and their commitment to providing aid to broadcast industry individuals in dire need. I am pleased that VHI will partner with the Foundation to help educate broadcasters throughout the US about voice problems they may be experiencing.”

“The synergies between the VHI and the BFOA are obvious,” stated Tim McCarthy, President of the Broadcasters Foundation. “In our profession, if an on-air individual has trouble with or loses their voice, they also lose their livelihood. And the same may hold true for off-air personnel, who use their voice to interact with clients, co-workers, and more. Having Dr. Zeitels as a resource will be an invaluable benefit for our broadcasters."
