ABOUT THE ORGANIZATIONS
Bay Area Girls Rock Camp
BAGRC is a nonprofit dedicated to empowering girls through music, promoting an environment that fosters self-confidence, creativity and collaboration. It is a place where girls learn to play instruments, form bands, and write and perform their own music in a supportive environment of female instructors and mentors. Through music lessons, workshops, group activities and performance, girls acquire skills that help guide them throughout their lives.
save KUSF
From 1963 until 2011, KUSF was a community and student-run broadcast station owned by the University of San Francisco. At 10am on January 18, 2011 USF Deans informed the on-air dj that the station was going off the air and he was to cease programing and leave the studio at once. There had been virtually no warning that the station was to be sold. The dj and the rest of the volunteer staff and students were escorted off the premises by campus police. Following the frequency's abrupt sale to USC, USF announced plans for a stripped down form of the station to become an online-only entity. The organization saveKUSF feels the sale is an injustice to the community KUSF served and is fighting to block the sale of the broadcasting rights to 90.3fm.
