Lions Club announcements & promotions will be listed here. Check back often to see what our generous benefactors are doing to benefit the Radio Reading Network and others.
The Radio Reading Network of Maryland is an independent non-profit 501(c)(3) organization which serves persons who are either visually or physically impaired to the degree that they are unable to read for themselves. Listeners do not have to be legally blind to receive our programming. The service keeps Listeners up-to-date and involved in the world by offering news segments as diverse as comic pages, editorials and supermarket sales.
24 hours a day, 7 days a week programs are broadcast by means of a special radio signal on sub-carriers of WBJC-FM in Baltimore, WFWM-FM in Frostburg and WESM-FM in Princess Anne. The Radio Reading Network can also be heard statewide over the Second Audio Program (SAP) channel of Maryland Public Television.
The major sources of funding for the Network have been the City of Baltimore, Baltimore and Howard Counties, a number of Maryland Corporations and Foundations, plus many generous individual contributors.
The Network currently operates with a small paid staff and nearly seventy Volunteers, including members and advisors to the Board of Directors.
