:::::::::::: WANNA HELP?

You can --

* Contact local shelters, homeless papers, outreach organizations and activist groups to let them know about the broadcast and see if they want to set up "listening rooms," where homeless people can gather to participate in the broadcast. We also encourage listening-room sponsors to invite politicians and the press to hear the broadcast directly in the company of homeless people.

Or send us suggestions for guests. Or contact your local radio station and ask them to rebroadcast the 6th Annual Homelessness Marathon - just like all these other stations!
