‘App-signment’ – your picture or sound of the year
As the year winds down, we invite you to share a picture and sound of what stood out most to you in the past 12 months.
Takeaway digital editor Jim Colgan sets up the assignment, and shares a moving story we got for our last assignment, What Home Means to You. It’s from Steve in Troy, Mich. and it gives the image and sounds of his family’s last Thanksgiving in the house that they’ve owned for 20 years.
Without federal support, local stations, especially in rural and underserved areas, face deep cuts or even closure. Vital public service alerts, news, storytelling, and programming like The World will be impacted. The World has weathered many storms, and we remain steadfast in our commitment to being your trusted source for human-centered international news, shared with integrity and care. We believe public media is about truth and access for all. As an independent, nonprofit newsroom, we aren’t controlled by billionaire owners or corporations. We are sustained by listeners like you.
Now more than ever, we need your help to support our global reporting work and power the future of The World.
