SHARE Kelowna chosen for $60K airtime award

SHARE does a lot more than you think

A Kelowna based non-profit is set to tell a lot more people about what they do in the community.

SHARE Support Society has been granted the Community Airtime Award from Pattison Media’s 103.1 Beach Radio, 104.7 The LIZARD and OV103.9, along with their community minded sponsors Kelowna Dental Centre and Kelowna Toyota.

The award is granted semi-annually to a non-profit group or charitable organization and offers $60,000 in advertising to be used over a six-month period.

“I think over the years, SHARE has developed a reputation in the community for being a thrift store, and we are so much more than that,” Janine Makar, executive director at SHARE Support Society told Kelowna10.

SHARE has a variety of programs to help people get a kickstart in finding employment and wants to tell others their story.

103.1 Beach Radio, 104.7 The LIZARD and OV103.9, encourages non-profit groups and charitable organizations throughout the Okanagan to apply for the Community Airtime Award online.
