Private broadcasters are proud of the role they play in helping to shape our communities and our country. Their commitment to Canadians is two-fold; on-air, they strive to deliver the best in news, information and entertainment programming, while off the air, their commitment continues, through charitable donations and other public service assistance in communities around the country.

Private broadcasters make significant contributions in their communities through their constant involvement with local groups and organizations. This assistance comes in many forms, including the donation of airtime for telethons or radiothons, the airing of public service announcements in support of charitable organizations, or the volunteering of time and energy in support of local groups.

Through these initiatives, many community groups are able to catalyze or stimulate growth, and to convey their message using the full power of the broadcast medium.

The CAB maintains below a listing of civic leadership and charitable initiatives, and encourages its members to provide details on these undertakings in their community.
