Strength for Life hits the radio waves

Strength for Life has been promoted in a variety of languages through the far-reaching waves of several radio programs. Over the past couple of weeks Strength for Life has found its way into the homes of many culturally diverse community members; we thank all the radio announcers who have taken the time to conduct interviews and deliver culturally and linguistically appropriate information about Strength for Life.

Many thanks to:

  • Jaime and Eliana - PBA FM’s Siempre Lunes (Spanish speaking)
  • Claudia and Maria-PBA FM’s Salvadorean Radio
  • Liliana and Rosalie- Radio Italiana
  • Chakshu - 5EBI’s Punjabi and Hindi Programs

It has been delightful working with you, and we look forward to further collaboration!
