Mission & Values

WERU Mission Statement:

WERU Community Radio is an independent, noncommercial, educational media organization.

WERU engages with the local community to provide diverse music, independent news, public affairs and cultural content that connects, informs, and inspires.

 

Values that Guide WERU:

Inclusivity and Diversity
Civility and Respect
Social Justice
Environmental Stewardship
Service to the Community
Celebration of Local Communities

 

More About WERU:

Our motto is to be a “voice of many voices” by offering a wide variety of people opportunities to share their experiences, concerns and perspectives with their neighbors over the airwaves and Internet.

We celebrate listener support as an essential element of our financial sustainability.  We likewise celebrate volunteerism as an essential element of the organization’s operations, both broadcast and behind the scenes.

We offer programming intended to serve the needs of local people not fully served by mainstream media, and programming that is intended to support healthy, informed and vibrant communities.  We seek diversity in our programming as well.

 

The bylaws of Salt Pond Community Broadcast/WERU are available upon request.  Email info@weru.org.
