What's On UEN-TV

 

Buzz

In each episode of BUZZ we meet a nonprofit and learn about the good it does in the community it serves. And we hear about the thing it needs to make the difference in the organization... something to reach more donors, volunteers, clients and fans... something to give it more buzz.

    "I don't want to say insurance doesn't care, they just don't understand. If it doesn't affect you, you don't understand." More than 1,000 Virginia families each year struggle to afford costly wheelchairs, walkers, standers and strollers for their special needs children. Thankfully, there's Children's Assistive Technology Service, aka C.A.T.S., a nonprofit providing children across the state with refurbished pediatric rehabilitation equipment ... all at no cost. Helping fund C.A.T.S.' mission is an annual Halloween event, Hallowheels. Our good friends at 5Points Creative - with generous help by EZRampz Mobility Solutions, WDBJ7 and WWBT - are back with a fantastic marketing campaign to get more people to know about, and financially support, this life-changing event.

    Friday, January 3
    8:30 pm on UEN-TV 9.1
    In 1997, 10-year-old Jason Rooker accidentally hung himself while playing in his front yard. The brain injury he suffered would eventually take his life ... and inspire his parents to found a nonprofit to help other New River Valley families struggling with such tragedies: Brain Injury Services of Southwest Virginia. But over the years BISSWVA has grown beyond the NRV to provide resources to 11, 000 square miles of Virginia, from Martinsville and Lynchburg to Alleghany and Lee County. And the unwieldiness of the name can be difficult for its clients to remember. Marketing specialist Wordsprint, which helped rebrand Mill Mountain Zoo and Eastmont Community Foundation in previous episodes of BUZZ, returns to provide its pro bono expertise.

  • Healing Arts in the Roanoke Valley
    Friday, January 10
    8:30 pm on UEN-TV 9.1
    Throughout his life, Dr. Robert L.A. Keeley was not only known for his medical talents in the Roanoke Valley, but his musical gifts as well. So much so that upon his death, Carilion Clinic in collaboration with the Keeley family founded a Healing Arts program. Today, Carilion Clinic offers a variety of "healing arts" resources such as artists-in-residence who provide therapeutic treatments to patients and staff. Other nonprofits are also working in this space. Roanoke Symphony has partnered with Anderson Music Therapy on regular programs for memory-loss nursing home residents. Taubman Museum of Art hosts " healing ceiling tiles" in which community members turn ceiling tiles into artwork that's hung in Carilion Clinic patient rooms. This episode is the third of a 6-part series of BUZZ focusing on Roanoke's arts and cultural nonprofits, produced in collaboration with the Roanoke Cultural Endowment, City of Roanoke, and Carilion Clinic.

    Friday, January 24
    8:30 pm on UEN-TV 9.1
    In the 1970s during summers and after school, children often wandered the streets without supervision of Roanoke's West End, a neighborhood defined by poverty and crime, vacant lots and vandalized buildings. But then a group of churches and civic groups came together to establish West End Center as a safe haven - and more importantly, hope - for the neighborhood children. Today, West End Center serves about 150 children each year, providing them and their families with low-cost academic enrichment, wellness programs and leadership training to become productive, responsible adults. BUZZ partner 5Points Creative returns to provide a comprehensive marketing package to promote West End Center to a wider audience.

  • Christiansburg Institute, Part 1
    Friday, March 28
    8:30 pm on UEN-TV 9.1
    For 100 years, the Christiansburg Institute stood as one of the finest schools for Black Americans in Virginia. Founded in 1866 just a year after the Civil War put an end to slavery, Christiansburg Institute became a testament to African-American self-preservation, educating thousands of students on its 185-acre campus. Education giants such as Booker T. Washington served as superintendent. But in 1966 school integration finally took hold in Virginia ... and Christiansburg Institute's legacy was quite literally whitewashed away. Its academic buildings were shuttered. Its students scattered to previously whites-only schools. Its land subdivided and sold off. Today all that's left is one abandoned building on four acres. But there's a group of passionate people dedicated to preserving its history ... and creating a catalyst for community conversations, racial justice and change. Helping them is Spectrum Media Solutions, which designed and donated a new website so they can share their story to a national audience.
