Central Oregon nonprofit community radio station, KPOV High Desert Community Radio, 88.9 FM, was recently awarded an important $7,000 grant from The Collins Foundation.
“KPOV expresses our deep gratitude to The Collins Foundation for their generous support of KPOV.” says Jill Mahler, KPOV Station Manager. “The Collins Foundation is an important supporter of high quality, culturally responsible services in sectors such as health, social services, arts and culture, education, housing and employment. KPOV is proud that The Collins Foundation values the work we do in our community and shows confidence in KPOV’s ability to deliver our services with the level of quality that meets their high standards.”
KPOV was funded by The Collins Foundation to support KPOV’s new radio transmitter project. KPOV is working to replace its existing transmitter to ensure reliable service to the Central Oregon community for many years to come.
