CRFC to once again provide funding to campus and community radio
*Ottawa* - The Community Radio Fund of Canada (CRFC) is pleased to launch
its second call for applications for Canada's campus and community radio
sector.
Contributions are available to the sector under two programs: the Radio
Talent Development
Program<http://www.communityradiofund.org/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=19&Itemid=27&lang=en>and
the Youth
Internship Program<http://www.communityradiofund.org/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=19&Itemid=27&lang=en>.
The goal of both programs is to develop innovative local interest
programming while providing mentorship, education, and or training for
broadcasters.
The deadline for each program is *March 19, 2010*. There is $80,000
available under each program, with a maximum $10,000 for each applicant. The
applications will be assessed in April by an independent jury. The final
results will be announced in mid-May. Guidelines and
forms<http://www.communityradiofund.org/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=30&Itemid=60&lang=en>are
available on the CRFC's website.
"The CRFC had a highly successful first year in running these two programs,"
says CRFC President Ian Pringle. "Last year we gave out nearly $160,000 to
the sector. The initiatives we funded were as diverse as the stations
themselves, but in all cases, the end result was that we helped the stations
better serve their communities."
Both of these programs are made possible by a financial partnership with
Astral Media Radio through a CRTC contribution mechanism totalling $1.4
million over seven years. "We appreciate this partnership with Astral Media.
The CRFC looks forward to working with other partners to help build a
stronger community media sector in Canada," says Pringle. As the CRFC is
certified as an eligible recipient of Canadian content development (CCD)
contributions, it is open to work with all of Canada's private broadcasters.
