Community In the News Stations

Community members and the Broadcasters Foundation of America came to the aid of a central Wisconsin broadcaster who lost her home in a fire.

Patti Cavanaugh, the midday personality on WCWI in Adams, lost everything in the August fire.

The station held a fundraiser on Nov. 1 that raised more than $42,000.

The Broadcasters Association of America provided Cavanaugh with a check for $2,000 to aid in her recovery.
