Entercom Helps Rebuild Houston
• Next month the Houston area will mark the one-year anniversary of Hurricane Harvey, which absolutely devastated the region. To that end, Entercom has announced an alliance with Rebuilding Together Houston. As part of that partnership, Entercom’s six Houston stations — KILT-FM (100.3 The Bull), KKHH (95.7 The Spot), KHMX (Mix 96.5), KLOL (Mega 101), KIKK-AM (CBS Sports Radio 650) and KILT-AM (Sports Radio 610) — will conduct a three-week fundraising challenge on-air and online, beginning Monday, July 30 and will lead the rebuilding of the homes of five families who were adversely impacted by Hurricane Harvey. On Friday, August 24 and Saturday, August 25, Entercom Houston employees and their families will volunteer in a two-day rebuilding project of five homes in the Houston suburb of Independence Heights.
“We are proud to partner with Rebuilding Together Houston and to be a part of the long-term recovery effort for our fellow Houstonians,” said Sarah Frazier, SVP/Market Manager of Entercom Houston. “Radio is a community connector, and with our reach of over three million Houstonians weekly, we believe we can make a huge impact in helping to rebuild our community.” Christine Holland, CEO and Executive Director, Rebuilding Together Houston, said, “We’re very thankful for the partnership with Entercom — together we will help tie Houstonians back to the need across the city one year after Harvey and give Houston citizens and businesses the opportunity to join us and help.”
