SEE How Radio Cares
All across our land, radio stations have mobilized in their communities. They have held fundraisers, hosted community vigils, sponsored neighborhood events and much more. They have opened their microphones and their websites to an outpouring of listener emotion and feedback and helped people everywhere connect and communicate.
On this page, you can see a variety of visual images including photos from station events, power point tributes and more.
Please send Radio Cares content your station has produced or gathered so we can include it on this page. To send content to be included on this page, please click here.

Photograph of Dallas Sunrise with American Flag - ABC Dallas
"Shortly after the 9/11/01 tragedy, driving to work, I saw a beautiful Texas sunrise. I stopped and got a picture of it, then superimposed the American Flag over it and we offered it for download as a "wallpaper" for listeners with computers. No logos...no commercialization at all. To date, we've had about 7,000 downloads. You can view it or download it at www.abctexas.com/desktop.html." - Robert Shiflet, ABC Radio Group, Dallas/Fort Worth 10/2/01
