The BFOA is the financial lifeline for our colleagues in critical need across the country... but we need your help to ensure everyone knows that the BFOA is here to help!
To spread the word, we started the BFOA Media Mixer event series. Join us as we travel from market to market to celebrate the power & generosity of our broadcast community.
At each stop, you will have the chance to...
♦ Mix & Mingle with peers, on-air talent, and industry executives
♦ Learn how your BFOA provides vital support to our community
♦ All while enjoying free beverages, bites, and a bit of entertainment!
Want to stay in the loop? Sign up here.
