#GivingTuesday
On #GivingTuesday, if you’re in a position to do so, don’t forget to lend a helping hand to hardworking charitable groups and non-profit organizations, those that make a difference in your community, enhance the quality of life, and actually do some good in the world. They need your money more than Amazon does. We’ve all got too much stuff anyway.
I stumbled across this video from a few years back of me interviewing Carol Burden, executive director of Trenton Music Makers, at the WWFM studios. It was the station’s custom for a time to invite representatives of local non-profits to come in on this day and tell us a bit about what they do. In between, I would program musical selections appropriate for the occasion and for the season, such as Beethoven’s “Pastoral” Symphony, with its concluding hymn of gratitude and thanksgiving, and Alan Hovhaness’ Symphony No. 11, “All Men Are Brothers.”
Kind of ironic to note the station’s mission statement at the end, since so little of the programming has been local since the start of the pandemic.
