Wilmington’s hometown NPR affiliate is looking for enthusiastic and engaged WHQR listeners to join the Community Advisory Board. The goal of the CAB is to support and promote the station and to solicit our community's input on issues and programming important to them. We do this by representing the station at community events and volunteering our time to support WHQR's mission. Each member is expected to attend all meetings (4 a year) and to volunteer at a minimum of 2 community events per year. CAB members also have the opportunity to volunteer for station events, work pledge drives, and support the news team in the Community Agenda Project.
