Activate! Volunteers Needed
Are you a volunteer, a member of an organization that utilizes volunteers, a board member, a committee, or a commission member? Would you like a chance to share your experiences, share your volunteer needs, spread the word about your organization, or motivate others in the community to get involved? If so, consider volunteering to share your stories. Activate! is a partnership between WFHB and the City of Bloomington Volunteer Network, which presents first-person narratives from people working for positive change. Interested participants will pre-record interviews at the WFHB Community Radio Station, which will air at a later date during the end of the WFHB 5pm Monday Evening News.

Activate! interviews
- Activate! interviews are a way of celebrating volunteers, volunteerism, committee and board members, and organizations that use and rely on volunteers to support their programs. The program is not live but is pre-recorded to run at a later date. Activate! runs during the last portion of the WFHB radio’s 5pm News segment on Monday evenings (@5:25pm).
- Chad Carrothers, will be conducting the interviews at the WFHB studios located at 108 West Fourth Street in downtown Bloomington. Interviews are currently being scheduled on Tuesdays at 3 pm, 7pm, 7:30pm | Wednesdays 4:30pm, 5pm | Thursdays 3pm, 7pm, 7:30pm. While it is preferred if you can make it to the station, interviews can be recorded over Zoom if necessary due to preference, weather, or accessibility issues (the studio is located in an older building and not very accessible to those using wheelchairs or other mobility devices).
- Interviews generally take less than 30min. If all goes well, you may be in and out in 15 minutes. The final piece that will air will be around 5 minutes.
- The doors to WFHB are generally locked, but there is normally someone at the front desk to let people in, or you can text/call Chad on his cell number (812) 337-7827 when you arrive and he will let you in the building.
- The interviews will be posted on the WFHB Activate! Archive after airing at https://wfhb.org/category/news-public-affairs/activate/
