Wild helps a mom get a job

Don @ IdahoRadioNews | June 22, 2009

A single Boise mother of three had reached the end of her rope – unable to find a job in the face of high unemployment. At a loss for what to do next, she called into the KWYD/Wild 101 morning show. Host CK took action, and brought the woman in – put her on the air, and gave her a chance to tell her story.

As we’ve often seen — the Boise community stood up, and several job offers came in for the woman. One of the offers matched up – and she started work two weeks ago.

    That’s what local radio does for its community. You need to engage the listener and serve the community. That is what we believe in at Impact Radio Group. Serve the listener’s needs with the best possible programing. Radio was and should be a “product driven business”.

    I give you credit, Elliot. It’s a nice value to have.
