Your stories of the past ten years
We’ve been poring over the 2010 census results, but dry, statistical information only goes so far. So we’ve been asking you how your lives have changed over the past 10 years. We’ve gotten tremendous responses all around, but one from Takeaway listener Heather Hudson really caught our attention. Heather shares her story.
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.
