The GLT Staff has been working over the past few months to clarify this organization's mission and give priority to the opportunities (and the challenges) that lie ahead. In the process, we've been wrestling with some pretty loaded words: words like Vision, Identity, Values, and Goals. But no matter where those heady words lead us, our discussions always circle back to the one word that drives the whole WGLT enterprise .. .Listener.

As in YOU. You, who listen to, rely on, trust in and enjoy GLT. You are the engine that drives this machine.

You demand comprehensive local, national and international news coverage, thoughtful discourse, and intelligent entertainment. We provide.

You need a broadcast service that is responsive to the needs and interests of your community. We are.

You want the very best in musical offerings and artistic endeavor. We deliver.

And, voluntarily, you help foot the bill. You, the listener, help pay for the programs you need and want. GLT is here for you because you demand the best and because you help pay for the best.

Which brings us to the GLT Fall 2004 Campaign. It's time to place a dollar value on everything GLT gives you and pledge your financial support for the coming year. It's time to let us know in no uncertain terms what we do right and what we do wrong. It's time to come together with your fellow listeners and local businesses to ensure a credible, substantive, and civil voice remains available in your community. GLT must raise $90,000 this fall to pay for the programs you depend on. The Fall On Air Fund Drive is October 14-19.

Don't wait - here's how you can take action right now: Kevin Hart, Kathryn Carter, & Jim Peckman hard at work during the Spring 2004 Fund Drive.
