Our Mission

The Wisconsin Broadcasters Association Foundation contribution to broadcasting in Wisconsin encompasses a strategic, long term vision for enhancing, promoting and supporting the broadcast industry by encouraging the preservation of broadcast history, participating in public affairs activities in the State of Wisconsin and providing educational opportunities for professional broadcasters and those who seek future careers in the broadcast industry.

THE LEGACY CLUB

The Foundation's Legacy Club was formed in 1998 to provide a formal procedure and recognition for those who make bequests or agree to make bequests to the WBA Foundation in their wills.


Legal counsel was commissioned to develop sample codicils that can be used to amend current wills. Initial solicitations were made to veteran Wisconsin broadcasters in 1998.

Jim Schuh, longtime Stevens Point radio GM at WSPT and WIZD radio, became the latest Legacy Club member in June 2011, making a bequest to Foundation in a revision of his will.

Legacy Club membership in 2011:

Bob Barry Laurin Jorstad Dick Record
Dick Dudley Perry Kidder David Sanks
Nate Goetz John Laabs Don Seehafer
Bruce Grassman Paul LeSage Sandy Shockley
Jack Hackman Scott Lopas Terry Shockley
Ed Hinshaw Joe Moen Jim Schuh
