Cox Media Group (CMG) has taken action to provide crucial assistance in the aftermath of hurricanes Helene and Milton, raising nearly $1 million to support those impacted.
The group has delivered food, water, and essential supplies to affected communities. Additionally, CMG has set up mobile charging stations for phones and other devices to help residents during power outages.
In the wake of Hurricane Helene, Cox’s Tampa Bay six radio stations successfully raised nearly $950,000 during the “Hope After Helene” event. The funds will support essential relief efforts through Metropolitan Ministries, with contributions also coming from CMG’s stations in Jacksonville, Miami, and Orlando.
Cox Media Group President and CEO Dan York stated, “These efforts by our CMG family highlight the indispensable role of our stations – and our entire broadcasting industry – as we work together to make a powerful and positive impact on the communities we live in and serve. As importantly, none of this would have been possible without the incredible support from our local partners and audiences. The response of our viewers and listeners has been nothing short of remarkable.”
