MUMBAI:
In its continued endeavor to contribute to society, Radio City 91.1
FM, India's Leading Radio Network undertook a 10 day 'Radio City
Donate a Book Campaign' from 26 August - 2 September, 2007. This
10 day campaign was started on August 26, 2007 to commemorate Mother
Teresa's Birth Anniversary and concluded on Teacher's Day, 5 September,
2007.
Starting
26 August, Radio City urged Hyderabad's Radio Cityzens to support
the campaign whole heartedly to donate books for under-privileged
children. The FM station received a tremendous response from listeners
who contributed to this cause with full enthusiasm. Radio City received
hundreds of books varying from nursery books, story books, novels,
books on general knowledge and even engineering text books. Some
listeners also donated clothes.
On
Teacher's Day, 5 September, 2007 the team from Radio City including
Ms. Manuja Verma, Programming Head, Radio City Hyderabad, RJs Shraddha
and Sameer from The Radio City Breakfast Show, RJ Anuj (Radio City
Joyride), RJ Gowthami (Hum Tum) and RJ Sudha (City Spice) visited
Alpha Home and Divya Disha Balniketan at Uppal to present the collected
books and clothes. The Radio City team spent quality time talking
to the children and playing with them; they distributed books and
joined the children for lunch. The FM station also ran LIVE out
broadcasts from these homes.
Thanks
to the generosity of the people of Hyderabad, Radio City through
this campaign successfully observed Teacher's Day by touching the
lives of more than 200 under privileged children in its 'Whatte
Fun' style!
