Here’s a possible story idea: What are Utah groups doing to help Haiti earthquake victims?
• Today (1/21) Utah Public Radio (call Kerry Bringhurst) is hosting a fundraiser among listeners, with 100% of proceeds going to Haitian relief efforts. KUSU had to get a special waiver from the Federal Communication Commission (FCC) permit a fundraiser that doesn't benefit KUSU public radio, which is the usual rule. Other KUSU/UPR contacts: Cathy Ives, station manager, Lee Austin, Nora Zambreno, Tom Williams. See upr.org for contacts & info.
• Utah/Cache Valley Red Cross (Doug Ringle?) is involved (and discussing those efforts with Bringhurst on KUSU this morning).
What else is going on? Church groups? USU student groups? Other Utah efforts for Haiti aid relief?
Some kind of roundup story?
Any ideas? Anyone know anything? Anyone want to do this? If you have anything to contribute, let us know on the blog and someone can pull all that together.
AS A RELATED STORY: I’d really like a localized Haiti story—someone at USU or in Cache Valley with a personal Haiti connection. Tell that/those stories about people here who are bleeding along with people there. ANyone know someone here with Haiti connections?
