Utah Cares

Utah Nonprofits Association, KCPW and Utah Public Radio are partnering to produce short radio spots demonstrating the positive impacts of local nonprofit organizations. Utah Cares will feature a series of stories from diversified nonprofits, and the first round will run from December 20 - December 31, 2008.

The series will feature different spots four times per year in February, June, September and December. This exciting effort is designed to help increase the visibility of nonprofits across the state and to inspire people to give generously to area charitable organizations and community groups that are so essential to the health and well-being of our state.
